:o Ok Mommies/Daddies. My soon to be 4 year old daughter will be starting 4K this August. (She actually will turn 4 in August) She has a pretty severe injury. She still has not regained any hand, wrist, or extension. So I am starting a list of anything and everything to prepare the teacher, school, and myself for this up coming school year. I am a little nervous. Not that I don't think she will do well but the adaptation of activities, special accommodations that will have to be made and making sure that her teachers will be on the same page. I don't want her to be treated any differently, I am only concerned with her safety. Right now she doesn't know that "righty" is different. Sometimes she forgets about "righty" and that is what is just a little worrisome. I just want to be the best advocate for her. So any ideas or suggestions that I can add to my list would be great. Anything from the bathroom to holding a lunch tray to IEP/504 ideas. ANYTHING! She is one handed so I want to make sure she has the accommodations she needs to succeed. The good thing is its only a half of day so hopefully it will be a good transition. Thank you in advance.
