Ms Leslie is Jake's preschool teacher. We have never seen him become attached to a teacher so quickly. She is doing an amazing job bringing up his confidence. Each time Jake says " I can't do it", she takes the time to show him he can. If he doesn't want to try something new to eat, she says "how old are you Jake"? He says "3", so she then says "ok take 3 bites", by the 3rd bite he mostly likes what he has for breakfast or lunch. Parker and Wesley are his friends at school. They go everywhere together. Parker is very outgoing and Wesley is more shy like Jake. Jake is right on track with all his subjects and tasks for his age. He loves the computer and does not like to share it. They have stations through out the day and he has to be told to move onto the next activity. He loves to color on plain white paper. Ms. Leslie showed us a book that tracks each month and their skills of cutting, threading, pictures, drawing a line, writing/tracing their name. It is very interesting to see from September to November the progress he is making.
A funny story Ms. Leslie told us: Jake learned how to zip and unzip jackets. He is mostly in a sweatshirt, so his job when the kids get on their jackets to play outside is to zip up the jackets of his class. Did I mention that there are 3 boys and 7 girls in his class.
