Hamp went to school this year, be it only 3 days a week. We enrolled him in the 3 year old class at First Baptist Church Preschool. He loved it!
We weren't sure how he was going to adjust but he was a pro! Hamp has speech problems that make it hard for you to understand what he is trying to say. It can be frustrating for him but he as learned to cope with making you understand what he is saying. He started speech therapy going once a week. As the school year went on, he started talking more and more. The amazing thing was that you could understand what he was saying!
Between his speech therapist, Ms. Jennifer and his 3 year old teacher, Mrs. Karen, Hamp has become a chatter box! Ms. Jennifer would give Hamp homework that we worked on at home and Mrs. Karen also worked on them at school. All of this has made it easier to understand most of what he says now. He has become more adventurous in trying more complex words and sentences. From this we have found a little Einstein! Hamp constantly tell us his numbers and letters. Colors are his favorite way to describe everything he sees.
Every week Hamp would come home with new crafts that he had made. Watching him learning how to write his letters as been fun! I am amazed at his ability to go from tracing his name to actually being able to write it! It's so amazing to watch him grow...
We will miss Hamp not being apart of the Pre School at First Baptist next year. We are excited that he is so well prepared to start Pre-K at Big A Elementary. We look forward to seeing how far he goes next year!
