Speech Improvements

He no longer says lickle instead of little and bockle instead of bottle (struggled with this), his vocabulary has taken off. He sat down in the week and told us all about the Eisteddfod (a Competition day, written and performing, the same children seem to win everything). Matthew had no expectations as he's used to failing so that went over his head, but he told us how a few of his friends were crying when the same old children (you know the ones that get all the parts in the plays) got all the prizes). He related it all clearly- a non foggy day. Teachers seem to think the "best" children excelling is an indication of how good the school is, I however see the yard stick of good teaching as how well you teach the more difficult children. The non learning disabled ones will always progress happily.
