[quote=Anonymous]Does your child have interests? For example, are there craft kits or toddler Lego sets that your kid will do? I know mainstream classrooms try to pacify with iPad and so forth. My question is whether there are activities you could provide to the teacher that are motivational to your kid. My experience with NT 3 year olds is that you can find motivational tasks for many of them and it's highly individual. Thinking back on my boys at around that age, I wonder about Snap Circuits and Rainbow Loom rubber band bracelets and more engaging books on topics they wanted to read about. Reading skills also suggests memorization is possible. What about math fact drill games (flash cards, physical puzzles, electronic hand-held, or apps? Maybe if you abandon all pretense of formal curriculum (worksheets, etc.), and just try to match the subject (do an addition app during math time), something might spark.[/quote]
