Santino was permitted 5 minutes of outdoor play before working on academics. We reinforced the concept of up down using a jump rope and Santino enjoyed holding one end of it. Hand-washing was done once inside the facility in efforts to reinforce and consolidate prior gains that have been made. Next, we utilized wooden blocks and Santino spelled out three 3-letter words correctly: cow, car, and cap. He did not verbally identify the words when this teacher pointed to them, but he arranged the letters quickly and in the correct sequence. Santino brought a banana pudding from the snack options left out for him on the table. He did not wish to eat a banana or any of the dry cereal that were offered subsequently. After eating, this teacher read him the story 'Cat Count,’ by Betsy Lewin, to reinforce counting skills and word identification by Betsy Lewin. Santino followed along with his eyes as this teacher was reading but did not sustain attention for longer than 5-6 minutes. This reading activity is recommended and beneficial to facilitate Santino's ability to follow words from left to right, top to bottom, and page by page and to recognize that spoken words are represented in written language by specific sequences of letters and to become familiar with the organization and basic features of print. (Common Core Standard LAFS.K.RF.1.1). Santino finished the session utilizing a magnetic letter board to sequence the letters of the alphabet. This teacher introduced the word 'pattern,' and Santino was shown how there were 5 colors repeated in the same order when the alphabet was arranged alphabetically from A - Z. Santino was prompted to repeat the colors to reinforce his color identification skills upon request, as he has demonstrated the ability to name all the letters of the alphabet, but did not do so upon request during today’s session. This will continue to be addressed in subsequent sessions to strengthen gains and reinforce letter, color, and word recognition and identification skills.
