In anticipation of Adrian going to JK in September (and that it's confirmed the School board will provide 1:1 AVT for Adrian), the therapy that he’s been going since April at Markham Stouffville Hospital is coming to an end. Adrian enjoyed working with Rebecca, our SLP through the Infant Hearing Program and he’s thrilled to see her at each session. During the last 2 sessions, Rebecca did another assessment on Adrian and we are pleased to see Adrian did make some significant improvements. Generally, he speaks more - although the sentence structure is not quite there yet but he’s making good progress. Also, we need to continue working on the clarity of his speech by reinforcing sounds like "s" & "f" that Adrian had problems hearing them. As Rebecca said, Adrian is the happiest kid she’s ever worked with as he’s happy on everything! Though we've made the decision of not attending JK at Public School (therefore may not be eligible for the 1:1 AVT provided through the School board) but to continue at his current Montessori School, according to Rebecca – he will be qualified for another 2 blocks of sessions (I block of 6-7 sessions in fall and then another block in Spring) before he turns 5 under the YRPSLP.
