Recently I have been able to collaborate with Sooner Start to better meet the needs of a young girl with Downs Syndrome. I have been able to coordinate my weekly home visits with her bi-monthly meetings with Sooner Start, so I can learn what therapeutic activities or delay related information they recommend for the family. I use this information to help develop lesson plans that will supplement and reinforce these therapies and strategies. This young girl has made noticeable improvements in her language skills using Baby Signs, and has been imitating movements and some sounds. The parents have thanked us for bringing these helpful ideas that have enabled them to communicate with their child in a meaningful way for the first time.
