Theodore Learns
At 20 months, TD attended the holiday program at Julia Gabriel. This video is of him on the 5th consecutive day when he had lossened up and decided to particpate!
After weeks of no classes, and today was his first in 2012, he was a little difficult this morning.
He knows his name is 'Theodore' and says it many times at home, but would refuse to say his name when the teacher asks him so.
When the teacher asked him which colour card to choose for his fun pass between red, yellow, blue and green. He said 'purple', as Jovanah's nails were purple. Jovanah asked TD again, which colour, and TD said 'fun' as he recognised the word 'fun' on the card. Jovanah was very surprised that he can read words; but anyhow TD still did not choose a colour.
The letter of today was 'h' for helicopter. When the teacher turned on the remote helicopter, all the kids were thrilled and took turns to take it from Jovanah and place it back to the centre of the mat after taking off; but TD said 'off, off, off'.
Slowly, slowly, I hope with routine, he would be back to how he enjoyed class during the holiday program!
