Perfectly willing to be told IABU but not sure how I feel
DD announced this evening that she got to play lego in school today which she loved.

I asked oh how come you don't usually have lego in class. She said Mrs A pulled her and two others out of class after lunch to play lego and work on their communication.

Now I've not got a problem with this, I'm aware that DD can be shy and is not as forthright as some of the other children in her class, but I didn't think it was an issue?
Does the school doing this mean there is an issue, or just a "little" something they are helping her to work on.

I've been told nothing about this and have stopped myself from messaging her teacher as overall I don't think it's a bad thing, but now I feel like she's been singled out as having a problem/issue.

I know for a fact another girl in her class is so painfully shy, that in all the years of friendship I have actually only hear her speak once!

I'm being a bit sensitive about this aren't I?!

Lego therapy is brilliant, we use it at work. As a pp said it's possible she's been pulled to help out but more likely they've chosen dc who will all benefit. They will have taken them at a non critical learning time.

@Mumofsend I guess I’m trying to avoid her going in and saying “John and Jane need help learning to share, that’s what my mum said!” or whatever. I did tell her a mild version of what the group is for, and we bought a copy of the game they play for home - but I think in her case the appeal is special time with the lovely assistant teacher.

I now have bits of Pop Up Pirate all over the living room and am not irritated at all Grin.
