Are you a native English-speaker. If you are (or your husband is), the person whose first language is English should talk to her in English all the time.\n\nIf none of you is a native speaker, and even if one of you is, you should buy her programs in English. You should be able to buy series for kids over the Internet. listen to an English speaking radio. Buy DVDs in English. Buy songs in English. Maybe buy recorded kids' stories in English that she can listen to at night. She is still too young, but the sooner you start, the better.\n\nAt what age is she suppose fto go to school in your country? She'll probably still be young enough to pick it up, anyway. So if you just add those materials, she should be fine. Don't forget to still read her stories in your native tongue, if you're not English! And books from your country as well. Just get her everything in both languages.

Check to see if there is a local "head start" program in your community. These nationally recognized programs help children get ready for school with daily activities and lesson plans. You shouldn't have to take out a second mortgage to prepare your child for school. Also, be aware that not all children are ready for a rigid, all-day, structured environment at such a young age. Take clues from your child and see if just some quality hands-on teaching time with a caring parent might prepare him or her the best. Here is a site that might be of interest to you. Good luck!

Go and talk to the teacher. Find out what the situation is and what can be done to help it. If the situation is simply the teacher then talk to the principle, or have your child moved to a different english class.

baby einstine is great for that sort of stuff also you can try making her ask for things it will help her to increase her vocabulary it will also prevent her from having language barriers.

Pick the above answer.  She has been waiting for 2 months and it is a good answer. BTW my answer would be medicine or social services.

We home school, so it begins and ends when we want it.  The kids don't have 3 months off in the summer, but we can take various times off throughout the year when needed.

Keep the lines of communication open with the child. You helped with her care and if they are willing to keep those lines of communication open - go for it. Invite her out perhaps for dinner once a month and ask about school plays/functions. Don't overstep the bounds too much since the child has someone else as a legal guardian now, but you can still enjoy her life with her.\n\nMiss Cris\nhttp://lendinganear.wordpress.com

Do what is best for you, and don't let the rest of your family tell you what to do.  A lot of day cares are early learning centers as well.  I have a friend who put her daughter in daycare at 6 months she is now 5 and can tell you all 50 states and their capitals, the planets, read at a 3rd or 4th grade level, multiply and divide single digits, etc.\nIf your family finances are able to handle it GO FOR IT!!!!

FIRST OF ALL YOU ARE HAVING YOUNGER KIDS.  WHAT ABOUT YOUR CARRIER IN INDIA WHETHER YOU WILL GET GOOD JOB IN INDIA TO MEET ALL YOUR AND YOUR FAMILY'S NEED. IF YOU CAN DO IT IN INDIA THEN THERE IS NO COUNTRY BETTER THEN INDIA.  ONE THING MORE I WILL ADVISE YOU WHAT EVER YOUR PLAN YOU IMPLEMENT EARLY IF YOU HAVE TAKEN 3-4 YEARS TO IMPLEMENT THEN IT IS DIFFICULT FOR YOU DAUGHTER TO ADJUST IN INDIA.  STILL SHE IS YOUNG SHE CAN MANAGE.

Be sure she understands a simple ab pattern, and it is helpful if you can extend it. By that I mean red,yellow,red yellow. An extended pattern would incorporate another color. She should be fine if she knows all of the  names of the letters, sounds, colors, and basic shapes. I think the requirements for homeschool probably vary from state to state, but I suggest you call your local Office of Public Instruction. The OSPI in Washington State use to provide materials for parents who homeschooled. I am a certified public school teacher as well as a certified Montessori teacher. Your daughter will be fine given your concern and involvement. Start her putting the sounds together to form simple words (cat, dog etc.) Have her practice her manuscript to develop her fine motor skills (we use D'Nealian in WA) you should be able to obtain practice sheets off of the Internet. Teach her the seasons as they change. I always taught the names of baby animals in the spring, apples and spiders in the fall etc. Good luck!

If your daughter is delayed with her eye-hand coordination, did not qualify for special education services, but her handwriting and coordination interfere with her ability to perform well in class, then she DOES qualify for a Section 504. This is under the Americans with Disabilities Act, in which accomodations must be made to allow a child (or adult worker) accessibility to the work area, materials, etc. so that he/she can effectively do his/her work (for the child, the work is learning).\n\nSchools tend to want to avoid 504 plans, as they cost money without bringing in any extra funding. However, if they don't provide her with one, they are out of compliance and can lose what funding they already have. Get your private Visual or Occupational Therapist's diagnostic information and reports on impact for your daughter's performance in school, march on down to the principal, and say the magic words, "I have documentation for my child's ADA SECTION 504 needs. So, when can the committee meet during this upcomming month?" Under 504, assignments can be modified, specialized pencil grips or keyboarding can be provided, etc. \n\nI would also recommend contact your state's or local parent advocacy group. This is made up of parents with kids with special needs who have "been there and done that" already. They can help you with your particular state's processes, making sure meetings happen and in a timely manner, etc.\n\nhttp://www.wrightslaw.com/info/sec504.index.htm\nhttp://www.children-special-needs.org/vision_therapy/optometric_vision_therapy.html\nhttp://www.visiontherapystories.org/eye_tracking_disorders.html

i think you should send your little kid to kindergarten first.\nthat would prepare him for the big school, he needs some socializing and ideas about the real world. \nhe needs to learn the basics and some of the super basics..

I started head-start at the age of 3. I am currently 13. I am in the gifted program and have received many academic honors. I am an excelled student and HeadStart helped me. Even though you may NOT want your child to go to school a little early; it would help a lot. He/She will be ahead of the class when she does start school. Take it from me I have head on experience.

Contact the school.  The issue is typically that spaces fill fast, so don't wait til August.

I couldn't find much on private preschools in your area. The links are below. However, I would really recommend you look at the public school preschool programming for special needs.\nLook at this site: http://sped.ocde.us/CC_ap.asp?menu=cc \n\nFirst of all, I would NOT recommend Head/Early Start for a preschooler with special needs. The teachers are NOT specifically trained for special needs, and those preschools focus heavily on socialization and a pre-packaged curriculum and instruction for the "regular" kids. They focus more on social/income disadvantages rather than physiological. While certainly you want your son to build the skills to function comfortably in the regular ed environment, throwing him in the deep end at the age of 3 or 4 will most likely end up in him drowning.\n\nYou SHOULD let you public school district know about your son (if you haven't already)... and enroll him there. Those teachers ARE trained to help your son. Plus, he will have immediate access to therapies he would not necessarily get in a private preschool, such as Occupational Therapy (especially for Sensory Integration), Speech-Language, etc. Just be sure that when you all sit down to write the IFSP (the individual plan used to help your son), you insist that his teacher(s) have prior background and training to work with autistics, and in-service training to ensure the program is current and up-to-date. It looks from your district's webiste that they do. Once you have an IFSP (when your child turns 5, it becomes an IEP) that outlines programming, goals, therapies, and teacher training specific to your child's needs, hold your district to it closely. If you have a reputation with the administrators in your school district as being someone who knows her child's rights, are vocal about them, and are willing to put the time and energy into making their lives miserable until they abide by them.... then they will provide correct support to the teachers so that they can do their jobs effectively. \n\nGetting him into the public schools' special needs Preschools program also acts as a "heads-up" to your local elementary school, so that they can already start looking for the staff (if not already there) and/or provide in-service training for existing staff, to prepare for a child with autistic-type needs on-campus. The school social worker will also help you link up with available community supports quickly (for instance, you'd be asking the SW a question like this, rather than a bunch of strangers on the internet...lol).\n\nIf you want a program run privately, here are a couple of  possibles... but I don't know their real level of quality in their programming. I would recommend touring facilities, interviewing staff, observing programming in progress, etc. Also, if you can manage it, talk to parents who had their kids in the program you are interested in, a few years ago (not currently). Now that their child is older, do they feel the program was of benefit?\n\nhttp://www.pyramidautismcenter.com/\n\nhttp://www.theracare.com/services.asp\n\n\nHere's your public school link about their services:\nhttp://sped.ocde.us/CC_ap.asp?menu=cc\n\nAnd here's one example of inclusive, supported programming they provide:\nhttp://sped.ocde.us/SS_rsc.asp?menu=ocde_ss ... look at Reilly
