  1. Julia’s Current Level of Development Presented by Liana St. Amand

  2. Language Development • Julia is currently in the developmental stage of telegraphic speech. • She also commonly omits or substitutes phonemes. • Julia is beginning to show syntactic patterns in her speech.

  3. School Activities to Scaffold Language Development • We can sing songs that focus on letter sounds to help with phonetic awareness. (ex. The alphabet sound song) • By rephrasing Julia’s speech, so she knows that she is being listened to, and can hear the correct vocabulary and pronunciation.

  4. Home Activities to Scaffold Language Development • Continue read-alouds with Julia to broaden vocabulary and let her continue to become familiar with the syntax in the English language. • Ask Julia to “read” her favorite books to you. • Incorporate more rhyming books to allow Julia to hear different phonemes at the beginning of words.

  5. Social Development • Julia mostly plays independently, but on occasion will engage in parallel play. • Julia is extremely helpful in class. • She is still developing conflict management skills.

  6. School Activities to Scaffold Social Development • A teacher can offer their assistance in problem solving during conflict in order to help Julia to express herself. • Social stories depicting ways that Julia can resolve conflicts and express herself if another child treats her poorly. • Puppet role-play during second circle time.

  7. Home Activities to Scaffold Social Development • Allow Julia to help with her baby sister to allow her to develop a strong bond with her. • Read books about people who are not nice to their friends, and help Julia think up ways that the character could defend his/herself, to help with conflict management skills. • Allow Julia and Mike to work out their own problems without too much parental interference.

  8. Cognitive Development • Julia has a very long attention span. • She is also able to classify objects using one classifier. • She is still developing her problem solving skills.

  9. School Activities to Scaffold Cognitive Development • Introducing sorting with two classifiers or allowing her to classify without instruction to help scaffold her classification skills. • Model a portion of problem solving and then allow Julia to finish.

  10. Home Activities to Scaffold Cognitive Development • Start reading longer books that still maintain Julia’s interest to continue to maintain attention span. • Set up expectation to put toys away in proper place to help scaffold classification skills.

  11. Physical Development • Julia climbs around outside play structure without fear. • Chooses to sit out during most of the dancing that occurs in class. • Still developing ability to ride tricycles. • Uses right hand and fist grip to write. • Her hand is still too small to use some of the fine motor tools at school. • Although she is potty trained, is still developing her communication of when she needs to use the bathroom.

  12. School Activities to Scaffold Physical Development • Create more dance options that incorporate the whole group that are similar to “Ring Around the Rocket Ship”. • Provide fine motor tools that fit Julia’s hands so that she can participate. • Consistently ask Julia if she needs to go to the bathroom, so that she gets used to communicating when she needs to go.

  13. Home Activities to Scaffold Physical Development • Allow Julia to help with packing her lunch every day to allow her to practice a variety of fine motor skills. • Set a bathroom schedule similar to the one at school, so that Julia gets into the routine of remembering to use the bathroom.

  14. Emotional Development • Julia adjusted well to not having Katie in the classroom everyday during her maternity leave. • She has begun to identify herself as a big sister since Alexa was born. • She exhibits self-control everyday during morning circle time. • She has started to express the feeling of being happy when we ask her how she is during the “Hello Song”.

  15. School Activities to Scaffold Emotional Development • We can now ask her why she feels happy during morning circle time to get her to start to think critically about her feelings. • We can have a review of some of the different emotions that a person can feel.

  16. Home Activities to Scaffold Emotional Development • Matt and Katie can start to explain their own emotions to Julia to allow her to see a different perspective from her own. • While reading they can talk about the emotions that a character may be feeling throughout the book.
