1 week left.....

So next week marks the last week for my son at  his current school.

Monday his new resource teacher spent the day with him at his current school. He started out having a rough morning, which I was kinda glad to hear. Sounds horrible eh? But I more so wanted her to see him in action. To see what his melt downs and anxiety looks like. To see what she was in for. All in all I heard really good things from both his current resource teacher, his new resource teacher and from him.

Tuesday my son and I met his current resource teacher at his new school. We popped into the office, said hello to the secretary and principal again, and then went on a little tour of the school. He seemed to be right in his element. Happy, go lucky - taking everything in. We toured the classroom's and we popped in to say hi to the kids we already knew. He took a peek around the library, drank in his surroundings and is excited to check out his first Star Wars book! He ran a few laps around the gym and showed off his *speed*! LOL

We ended by checking out his new classroom and scooping out some of his new classmates. I think it will be easier for him knowing one of my daycare kids will be in his class. His new teacher seems nice. Asked alot of questions, which is great. I'm also wayyy beyond grateful that his current resource teacher is keeping the lines of communication with the new school team open with herself.

It's such a beautiful thing to watch my son and his current resource teacher in action. You can see the bond they share. She is amazing with him and know's him so well. He is beyond comfortable with her and responds so well to her. I'm really going to miss having her interacting with him on a daily basis.

All in all he seems to be right in his element in his new school. He can't wait to get there and as sad as I am to be loosing his current support staff, I'm thrilled to know that he is moving into a community with a great team as well. A place where he feels comfortable.
