Summer school ~ Livvy

So Miss Liv started her special summer school on June 27th...she goes Tuesday-Friday from 9-11am. The first day, even when we talked it up that she's going, she didn't make the connection and was fine until I said goodbye and left. They make you bring them to the teacher out front and they bring them to the classroom to avoid the tug-of-war episodes that can linger on and on. She still cries every morning and the teacher, Nancy, says she cries on and off throughout the class. She has a hard time transitioning from activity to activity yet has bonded enough with Nancy to use her as "home base" for comfort during stressful situations. She has improved already with parallel play ( a 2yr old or under skill ) which is great! At least she's tolerant of other kids at times now. ;) She goes for 1 month then starts her fall school session in September with the same teacher, thank goodness. This is good practice and exposure for her and even though it's tough to watch her cry every morning, we know she's in the best place.
