Last Tuesday was the most wonderful day EVER! Not only did I get to spend time with energetic, booger wiping pre-schoolers, I also had the most wonderful parent/teacher conference with Tyler's team of teachers. He has an amazing team! Mr. Adams is his Social Studies/Math teacher and super hero action figure collector (very cool), Miss Cason (a.k.a pretty young thing) is his homeroom/reading teacher and Mrs. Royal is his resource teacher.
I alluded to the idea in a previous post that we as a family had decided Ty had matured over the summer or had an awakening. My jaw dropped when Mrs. Royal confirmed my suspicions. She told his teachers that she has seen NIGHT and DAY in Ty's performance from last year to this year. He focuses, he asks questions and he participates.
Mrs. Royal is now working on tools for Ty to use to help him remember things, charts and calendars, lists and mneumonic devices. He is starting to realize he needs these things and this is a HUGE step for him in his development. If we can give him these tools, it will free up his brain for learning instead of trying to remember everything he's supposed to do in his daily life.
This has been one more instance where I have been amazed at the human brain. I don't like to think of what could have been, but when I do think that way...God amazes me through the MIRACLE (and yes, he's OUR miracle) that is my son. Peace~
