About Me

My photo
I am a special educator who has recently relocated to Manila. One of my goals for this year is learn more about early childhood education and special education in the Philippines. I have been visiting schools and therapy centers (among others) and providing info here about them. I do not aim to endorse these different centers/schools, but my intention is to provide information in case some people are interested in learning more about them.

I like doing a lot of things at school.  I like to play, run, eat with my friends, or talk during meeting time.

But sometimes I have to wait. Waiting means having to do something else or doing ‘nothing’ before doing what you really want to do.

 There are so many times during the day when I have to wait.

Sometimes it gets a little hard to wait to do the things I want to do.       
pastedGraphic_18.pdf pastedGraphic_19.pdf
When this happens, I can tell my teacher I am having a hard time.  
pastedGraphic_20.pdf
I can count from 1 to 10.

I can also just ask an adult to sit with me or hold my hand and help me.

I am learning to wait more and more each day.
