[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I would sit down with her and discuss educational milestones and her pedagogical method. You could ask to see her lesson plans or goals for a month at a time. Explain exactly what you want. Even stroller rides outside should be engaging. Discuss her calling out the colors in English and Spanish/ French. She can easily learn those even if she doesn’t speak the language. They should also be counting on walks (cars, birds, etc.). If she had a degree in ECE, this should all be easy[/b]. [/quote] Don’t do this OP. The idea of writing lesson plans for one child is absurd and will be a red flag to her. I agree with the PP who suggests that she is still getting to know you/your child/routines. Take the suggestion to purchase some new things and see what she does with it. 20 months is young for crafts but sensory experiences and reading/singing should be a natural part of their day. Maybe there is a music or movement class she can attend with them? Overall, she sounds like a gem! —an ECE teacher of over 20 years[/quote] NP- I think that PP's comment might be a joke? Seriously? Educational milestones and her pedagogical method? Lesson plans? Hahaha This is a 20 month old![/quote]
