It's Time to Introduce a Second Language

I was watching my son during his session with the Early Intervention teacher this morning and I was so amazed at his performance, he really improved tremendously. Michael was delayed in his communication skills and it was frustrating for him and for us as well when we couldn't understand what he was trying to tell us. But his other skills like cognitive, motor, and fine motor skills were all excellent and even higher for his age. He started EI when he was 17 months and at 21 months he started to speak understandable words already and he never stopped talking since then. He talks in phrases now. EI for an hour once a week really helped. I always watch what the teacher do for the session then follow it up during the week.

This month Michael will be assessed again and I'm 100% sure that he will pass the test with flying colors. I'm just sad that we wont see Ms. Katie anymore, she is really very nice and sweet and patient. Anyway, since Michael can speak and understand English very well now, little by little I'm introducing Tagalog words to him already and I started with the body parts. It is so cute when he talks in slang Tagalog.
