ds (5) - done 1 yr school - has possible SN, we don't know, they don't know, he is quirky and they think about 18 months behind with social development which we think is due to hearing impairment, he's now had grommits - we're waiting to see if he'll catch up or will need statement etc, anyway in the meantime what would you tell out of school clubs? extra curicular activities? we're working on his listening skills but he will chatter on and needs to have 'rules' explained - his swimming teacher is great, if he starts to chat to her about what he's been doing she'll just say 'thats great but save it for the end of the lesson, we're here to swim now' and it reminds him to stay on track, he just needs (occassionally) reminding about what is expected - how do I explain that to someone? or do I let them find their own way? I'm determined that the extra circular stuff is good for him as he needs to be in that social enviroment to learn from others but have no idea what support he does or doesn't need.... any advice when you are at the possible beginning of a process? or not as the case maybe??
