Got back from Aasim’s last PT meet of the session. The assessment for him is “Average” for most of the things, “Good” for math, table activity, jigsaw, “Slow” for reading and writing.
If I type in my Gaim (yes he is on local Jabber) asking him to “come here” he will type back “why” – guess that does not count, neither does beating me in Quake III death match counts.
I was actually taken by surprise when to humor him I got into a multi player arena and was fragged three times before I started playing dirty. Sid Carter will be surprised to know this because when he was here Aasim was barely starting out again on Quake after a gap of almost 2 years, no don’t flame be for introducing blood and gore to him.
He has his share of Reader Rabbits and Jumpstart CDs which he plays when he wants.
Unfortunately keyboard from an early age has meant that he is very averse to writing using pencil and paper, same is the problem with reading handwritten text, We intend to remedy this in summer – don’t know how successful we will be.
Most of them photographs
Wow what a dad! Teaches son to play bloody games
He already feels it is not a good idea – two of his girl friends (yeah you have them at 5 now) came home and were absolutely unimpressed with his skills – But Pooh bear VCD won their hearts
Guess kids are wiser after all!

I suffered from a similar problem – I started typing before writing. (Of course, in those days there was no Quake or Reader Rabbit CDs – I remember some ABC game, and Monster Math game written in BASIC)! The only remaining effect of that is that my handwriting sucks!
But it’s OK these days, handwriting is kinda obsolete anyway.

Thank God Aasim cannot read this
