if i describe my dds behaviour, how old would you guess she is?
she wont be left at a friends house or party
she cried and clung for weeks at the start of the school year and still sometimes runs back for another kiss
if she is playing on the roundabout and another child comes over she runs off
she started swimming lessons but after a few weeks cried through the whole lesson and refused to go back
she wants to dance but wont start lessons as i would be in next room
if an adult speaks she rarely answers and if she knows them very well she whispers an answer so they hardly hear
if asked to make a choice she takes forever so people get bored waiting and choose for her
she cries at the slightest bump
she cries if her sister takes something off her
she cries if a toddler pushes past her
she cries if we say stop doing something cos its bathtime
she cries having her hairwashed
she cries having her hair brushed
academically, she reads phonic books easily and reads enid blyton although finds the chapters long. she writes long stories, spelled wrong but phonetically, she knows 3d shapes, adds 14+8, subtracts 20-5, knows 2 times table, 5 times table, 10 times table, some of 3 times table, will read out in assembly, takes part in plays, reads at school and talks in small group.
