Today marked the end of Ian's lessons at LNT. He has been attending their lessons since Jan 2009 (he was about 8 months at that time), and it has been nearly 2 years.
Some of the stuff taught in the class were pretty helpful in his development, such as drawing mazes, crafts, counting, learning the names of common furniture, logic blocks, cutting. These activities gave me a clue on the areas on which I could start to teach him at home.
However, Ian is still unable to pay attention to the class, especially when it comes to flash cards. He has just started to appreciate the songs, but as for some activities such as differentiating an object from a group, stacking 3D blocks, he was pretty much behind because he joined the 2007 children.
We wondered whether it was because he skipped a year and missed out the foundations of building these 3D blocks, etc. Anyway, we decided that it was time for a break. He was not concentrating much in the class, and we had been pretty tired bringing him there and forcing him to concentrate in the class.
Perhaps it was good to try out other classes to see whether something else would be more appropriate for his interests.
