Wave 3

Some things that we have in place seem to be having a positive impact on PQ. Eating his lunch inside with a buddy is giving him confidence to chat and play with children who aren’t usually his friends. I’ve also been in the habitat with them and PQ is also much happier interacting and talking to me which is a massive improvement.

Having set up his literacy bucket I’m not sure how much of it is being used as Joe is his mentor at this time. Joe does say that PQ is much more focused during literacy which was the aim. Hopefully we’ll get some feedback from Wendy when she next does an observation.

All the things we have put into place for PQ can also be used for others on wave 2 or 3 to help keep them engaged and progressing.

Some of the things that Mark Treadwell said about children who find rote learning difficult apply to lots of these children and so going forwards i’m going to try to implement more sensory learning to support their needs.
