.. which I guess I knew really. She's in yr 2 but working at yr 1 level. She has made progress but still struggles esp. with maths. She struggles a bit socially too, doesn't interact much with classmates especially when she has to work with a partner. When I ask dd why, she says she can't think of anything to say! We don't really do playdates, dd never asks for anyone and I can't do much as I work and don't know any of the other mums. dd's teacher also says she doesn't listen, eg when she tells the class to stop doing something in PE everyone else stops, dd just keeps going. We don't know if she doesn't hear (have doc's appt next week in case), but sometimes it's as if she 'zones out' - I have to repeat myself at home all the time! This did improve a while ago but has suddenly got worse again. dd's school have been very good at trying to help her, dd has an IEP and extra help from the TA. Does this strike a chord with anyone? Was anyone else's dc similar and did they improve later? dd's teacher thinks some of it could be down to immaturity as she's one of the youngest.
