I know we are not the first parents to battle is my 5 year old ready for Kindergarten! We did not want to "hold him back" as some would say is pretty common for families to do. But we prayed and spent some time working with Noah, took into account his developmental testing and several other factors and all of this brought us to the conclusion that Noah IS a Preschooler! We are meeting him where he is and going from there! :) When I think back to that 17 and a half old baby boy that was placed in my arms and all he has overcome since then it amazes me he is ready for Preschool at all :) God is so good!
I am learning even after so may years of teaching my daughter, teaching preschool and Kindergarten, being a children's Pastor and working with so many children that my own sweet Panda Boy is showing me new things and ways of doing things! :) One thing I am having to learn and that I do so much better with Noah than I did Celeste is that its HIS work. I do not need to cut everything out for him before he does a project because it might not be cut just right, and I do not have to worry if he is out of the lines and such! I am so much more mellow in my old age! :) Thank God because NOAH needs it :)
I am often really learning more and more about HOW children learn and what true education really is!
P.E :)
