Yay, I'm 149 weeks old today!
Masinja had his 24th ECI session this week. We discussed ways to better help him transition from one activity to the next. Masinja's teacher is going to make a First/Then poster that we can use to motivate him to finish an activity before moving on to another one. T.M. and I are going to take pictures of all of Masinja's toys and his teacher will laminate them for use with the poster. We also discussed trying another strategy to help him make eye contact. His speech therapist at Children's has had success with using a physical prompt. Masinja's teacher suggested using a familiar object or making an "L" with my fingers and placing it next to my eye and saying "Look" to get Masinja's attention. Hopefully this will help because he just refuses to make eye contact.
We STILL don't have the results of the Sensory Profile. Masinja's speech therapist couldn't figure out what was taking so long so she went looking and found it in his file. Apparently the receptionist never gave it to the occupational therapists to be scored. Now that it is in the right hands we should know something next week for sure!
That's all for now.
Peace,
T.M.M.
