Hello, mickeyma,

I would like to share experience with all of you here but quite embarrassing that my case is not yet successful but only with steady improvement.  If any mommy got successful case eventually or good opinions, please share with us.

First of all, I believe if we are not speaking with 2 languages daily at home, I guess my girl should have more improvement than currently.  Anyway, I still appreciate with God who all along guide me and my girl on the way.  

Our training is not all the time running smooth.  During the process of training, I have come across with high & low tide of her performance.  Desperation then encouragement afterwards with her improvement but when you start to be confident & excited about her performance then suddenly she will perform undesirably which depressed me sometimes.

Start from April, we do not stop table task with her almost everyday (except holidays) and assistance with my maid of course.  On and on I contacted closely with my OT/ST which I will not miss any opportunity to discuss with them regarding my girl’s performance and training methods.  To be the parents I need to understand my girl’s strengths & weaknesses in order to discuss with my therapists for designing appropriate training to her.  Initially, she was trained to role-play games & all cognitive knowledge, fine motor etc.  After she got passed with those skills, currently we focus on training with her languages of expression & comprehension by stimulating her with pictures & photos.  Cooperation with the ST, we find that my girl’s interest to learn knowledge from books, postcards or VCD etc.  Then we train her by using her strengths.  That is, through pictures and photos display, my girl can absorb messages much quicker than verbally and finally can apply those actions, descriptions or happenings into the real life.  Although she has already got a lot of words in her mind but seem unable to compile those information and express well from her mind.  My girl is that she is able to name a lot of objects but become weak in using those familiarize words when expressing her wish and thoughts.

In addition to one to one intensive training, I will take any opportunity for her group training.  For example, enroll her into kindergarten or nursery (however, very sorry that my nursery school is bad which I did not know initially!) or even playgroup during summer time.  I know her interest on music and she will attend music playgroup next month for more group interaction activities.  

My major technique of training her about language expression and comprehension is from books, advice from my OT/ST, websites and from all of you here!!!

Each child is unique therefore I believe that the training to our kids should be individualized and tailor-made.  More understanding with our children, more effective the training will be thereby a promising result we can see in future.

Congratulations! Hei媽/Bonnie.  Hope your son enjoys his time at the nursery. BTW, how do you find Ms. Wong?

各位,
無意中睇到這個topic,睇完之後真係有d唔開心,您們每一位為自己孩子不停的付出,只是簡單的希望孩子能夠健康成長;

但在我這幾年初為人母的心路歷程中,孩子要健康成長,好像是理所當然的,怎樣倍飬孩子成才,才是我們為人父母的責任;

然而,今天我才知道,我的孩子今天能夠健康成長,原來唔係必然的,我真的要感謝上天比我地的一份恩賜,原來只要孩子健康,才真真正正是父母的渴求.

我在這衷心希望每一位孩子都能健康地成長起來,就像是傷風感冒一樣,發病期過後,人亦活得比以前更好!!!

各位偉大的父母,請加油!!!!

gigi2,

So did you change nursery school for your girl at the end?

My girl is also very visual and learns more by experiencing than by listening.  Although she has already got a lot of words in her mind but seem unable to compile those information and express well from her mind. My girl is that she is able to name a lot of objects but become weak in using those familiarize words when expressing her wish and thoughts.  These also apply to her.

On the other hand, at times when she doesn't know some vocab, we can see that she really tries and uses her own ways to express the ideas.  Long time ago even before we knew she had speech delay, when she tried to tell me she wanted to sleep, she didn't know the word "sleep".  She pointed to the room, I didn't get it.  She got a book, opened it to the last page where a boy and a dog was sleeping (Easy to Read Level 1, Tiny's Bath) and made the snoring noise.  Then I realized she did try hard to communicate.  I might not be so smart myself to use the pictures in a book to indicate what I want! Another time, she was shown a picture of a boy cutting toe nails.  She didn't know the word "nail" and told us the boy was "cutting feet".  We gently told her the correct concept of nail but again I was happy that she didn't stop trying even though she didn't have the word for it.  The message I am trying to get across is: Don't stall at low tides.  Sometimes the performance and progress may not be as well as expected.  But so long we know we are trying and our little ones are trying, the DAY can't be far.

Her teachers commented that she seldom talks at school except when they ask her questions.  I mentioned this to the ST yesterday (not Jess, missed the appointment last time) and she said it was because she lacks the initiative to speak.  Her words relieved me a lot as I previously thought it might be the side effect of we asking her questions all the times.  Anyway, she suggested us to take turn in describing things. e.g. when reading books, we will take turns to describe alternate pages.  We haven't tried this method yet but I hope it will work.

尋日軒軒去左協康的幼兒訓練啦, 因為係工人帶去, 姑娘打比我, 講返軒軒的情況, 她話軒軒的表現比佢想象中好, 肯坐定定玩, 還玩得好開心.  還借左3份玩具返屋企, 要同佢做家課, 不過個衰仔返到屋企就不肯玩協康d玩具, 要玩返自己果d, 看黎可能我真係買得太多玩具, 我老公成日話我, 買到好似間小型幼稚園甘.  就黎訓覺都要訓係d玩具上邊.

你仔仔去左幼兒訓練未呀?

尋晚軒軒又有新驚喜.

我老公係廚房整緊藥比佢食, 我就沖定支奶比佢飲, 甘佢見到支奶, 就係甘叫'奶奶', '奶奶', 我不肯比佢, 因為想佢食完藥先飲, 就放到好入, 不比佢拿, 點知佢用手指(還要係第2隻手指), 指住指奶講'呢一個', 隔左好耐, 再講奶奶, 到呢一刻, 比著你, 你會不會再忍心不比支'奶奶'佢?

我比左, 但老公就話, 未食藥, 做mug比奶佢飲.

始終, 我心軟.

mickeyma & all moms here,

Let us encourage & support with each other!

Justjust,

We are 'old friends' already since we have discussed & started training our girl several months ago!  Our girls got similiar situation!

My girl has finished N1 and left the bad school.  

Now she is at K1 in the normal kindergarten with religious background.  This kinder with teachers & principal who are helpful & patient.   Only at the start of school days , my girl kept very quiet and ignored people.  From this week, she got improvement and is willing to play and join activities in the class, however, she is still very lazy to do self caring tasks when required i.e. wearing own shoes etc.  I discussed with the teacher about my girl's speech delay problem and she acted very patient and comforted me not to be over worry about it as some of children are late talker who might be speaking with the same level of other kids when reaching 4 or 5 years old.


Regarding the pictures & photos training, a little difference of yours.  After discussion with Jess, she requested me to get photos with family members or any other familiar persons that my girl has known them well.  From the photos, all of us were pictured with some actions i.e. washing faces, brushing teeth or opening door, shoes & clothes wearing etc.  My girl is then required to describe the photos from what she has seen.  At the beginning, of course we will guide her to describe and later she does catch up and is able to describe herself.

In order to avoid her only memorize the sentence instead of comprehending the description, Jess further requested that one action i.e. washing dishes should be pictured with different persons.  The main reason is not only memorizing it but we encourage my girl to point out what she actually has seen from the pictures with different character doing the same action!  Hope you understand with my description.

Besides the ST, my private OT will always train her cognitive knowledge and skills.  She is now very good at objects matching, grouping & selection.  Reached at age 3 my girl has just started to do some advanced techniques that she is required to tell us what the functions of objects i.e. knife is for cutting food, chopsticks are for eating rice etc.  

You also can tailor made something depend on your girl current age and abilities by utilizing her strengths.


kmwun,

We are parents from the same school!


Kristy-mummy,

Thank you for your support.  Please do not feel sad about the topic and actually I thank you for God who gives my little girl to me.  Without her, I perhaps still overlooked a lot of things for being parents.   Without her, I perhaps still do not concern or empathize about other parents who got difficulties with their children.  Without her, I perhaps still do not understand what is meant by speech delay or autistic features etc.  Without her, I perhaps will be an arrogant and narrow minded mommy merely focuses on competing with others about my child's academic or abilites etc (as my elder child who is a highly attentive kid and is able to receive traditional education)

hinhimmummy,

Congratulations!  I will also give him la!  That's the bonus given him because of his good performance ma!  Unless too violating something, I normally will follow the request made by my girl if she could speak in full sentence.  He or she will be encouraged to continue to perform it by positive rewards in the past expereince.

各位媽咪
update下啊仔情況先, 返左接近3個星期, 才正式返全日, 但日日一入學校老師抱入這刻一定大喊, 仲要係全世界最大聲果個!!!!!!!
返學後啊仔學了自己食飯唔要人餵,wewe自己入洗手間沖埋厠唔比你幫手, 近日仲唔肯用奶樽, 用吸筒or cup飲,各樣好像很好的時候..........聽完電話我喊了     
前日見完CAS ST, 昨日Dr. 電我, 佢話啊仔仍唔識說話&很多口頭指示都唔明, suggests consider SCC.
我立即鼻子 一酸, 佢真的很差嗎???      好像係喎!
本來很抗拒, 但諗深 一點, 比例細, 日日多d人教仲好...
你們話是嗎? :-|

陸美爸

hinhinmummy,
你軒軒返協康邊間呢？同埋排咗幾耐呢？我都好心急想快啲俾囝囝返政府早期訓練/協康幼兒訓練, 奈何兩邊都未有聲氣
軒軒識指住枝奶講"呢一個"......"奶奶", 換著我都會即刻俾枝奶佢啫(就算佢要餅餅、糖糖之類), 首先當係俾獎勵佢, 其次可以表示我哋明白佢所表達嘅訊息嘛

JOANNA722,
其實醫生嘅建議你可以考慮吓, SCC比例細好多, 導師可針對小朋友個別情況加強訓練......但你仔仔返學後都有唔少進步喎, 會唔會再返多一段時間又會好啲？唔記得你仔仔係咪讀緊兼收位or一般位呢？
sorry~好似無咩意見俾到你添....

陸美媽

hinhinmummy

JOANNA722

軒軒都係排緊scc位, 其實我覺得(真係我覺得, 不係因為佢排緊), 讀scc位比兼收位, 會更快, 更有效地幫助佢.  因為佢去養和做評估的時侯, 醫生話過, scc位, 對佢的幫助更大, 而不係佢情況好差, 先要讀scc位的.

星期六接軒軒放學, 老師又從旁'銬擊', 問軒軒平時係屋企係不係好靜, 聽不聽得明人的指示等問題.

我話佢係屋企會哼歌, 點知個衰仔, 即刻哼首happy birthday比我們聽.

聽得明人的指示 - 我話叫佢入房訓覺, 執好d玩具, 去街街, 坐低呢d佢都聽得明.

至於不肯食野, 我話佢係屋企食好多野, 食得多過家姐, 可能因為陌生, 先不肯食學校d野.

陸美媽

協康的幼兒訓練, 無記錯, 排左不係好耐, 應該1個月到, 個姑娘係自由身, 係協康都卦單, 你可以直接搵佢的, 佢上門, 不過我問過, 因為佢住沙田, 我住cwb, 黎我屋企要750元一堂, 佢話因為要同協康對拆, 同埋係傍晚時間+帶玩具比我. 所以我選擇去返協康, 灣仔的.

今日去美國冒險樂園, 撞到mamme, 好羨慕佢仔仔講野甘叻, 希望軒軒有朝一日, 都好似你仔仔甘叻!

JOANNA722

hinhinmummy & 陸美媽
多謝你們!  我個仔現讀緊兼収的. 現在我已叫醫生幫我照排, 看啊仔日後進展了! 因排得有位讀, 我相信要明年8月了, 希望啊仔今年多多進步啦! (好貪心) 我會努力幫佢, 各位努力啊!!

JOANNA722

其實我都係父母, 都會好明白, SCC呢幾個字或多或少是[沉重的]. 雖說是明白, 然而心裡面總有一絲掙扎.
唉...不過點想都好, 仍然要事事以仔仔利益為先(我知你都好明白). 就當俾個[最好的開始]仔仔, 返SCC每天都會有密集式的訓練. 用一兩年時間來個特訓, 對仔仔一生既路來講, 一定穫益良多. 先打好基礎, 再轉出兼收位其實仍然有人在. 哭完, 快些收拾心情. 努力啊!

hinhinmummy
我仔仔比你那個大. 同埋正如我先前一直講: 我入左錢去仔仔戶口好耐=ST+幼兒訓練+返學, 足足一整年. 加些經年努力>真係唔知死左幾多腦細胞, 先叫做等到.
我完全明白[等待仔仔那爆發期]真係好辛苦. 一路入錢入錢, 但係無人知道會有幾多收成. 不過都無辦法.

平心而論, 你仔仔對住屋企人真係活潑好多. 同上次在酒樓見住我地呢啲陌生人, 真係差幾遠. 有機會真係要同仔仔出黎見多啲陌生人=我地先得!

希望幼稚園適合你女女，佢返上午抑或下午班?我仔仔返下午班，因為99年出生率低，佢幼兒班同低班全班只有12個小朋友，直情係私校比例，好感受到學校對小朋友嘅關懷．今年人多d，高班有22人．

小學方面政府派位，我幫仔仔報左海濱嘅石鍾山，學校之前有參加融合教育，同老師通過電話感覺唔錯，佢地好積極用IT，好似幾啱仔仔．
