CONTINUATION-TODDLER PRE-School-Program<\/u><\/p>\n

2) Crystal Simon \u2013 at times is rejected by her mom. Was supervised by Shirley Pace, who gave her up to Corlis [Boutte]. These things don’t seem to affect her at school, but she does cry a lot in the evenings, when she’s with others. Is obese, which is not due to over indulgence, but appears to be hereditary, due to the fact that medical testing has shown no other cause. Crystal is basically quiet, has a very sweet personality. She seems to be progressing well in the program.<\/p>\n

3) Becky Barrett \u2013 progressing well for someone, who has never been in a communal situation. Her mother displays more separation anxieties than the child and is over protective of her.<\/p>\n

4) Will Gallee [Gallie] \u2013 Seems to be progressing at an even normal pace. Is a very well behaved child. Usually speaks up for what he needs or wants. Seems to enjoy the program. As a very good relationship with Pat [likely Grunnet], who tries to back us up all the way. Handles the gross motor activities fairly well, but needs to work on balance.<\/p>\n

5) Detric [Deditrick] Walker \u2013 Detrick has made a great behavior growth in the past few weeks. He seems more confident in himself. Where as before his self image & self worth were so poor that he had pretty much given up. Really tries to get attention in a positive way. Detrick it is a very bright child and can be very manipulative. Seems to be progressing at a fairly good pace with the gross motor activities.<\/p>\n

6) DeShon Johnson \u2013 DeShon is extremely bright and has shown a lot of sensitivity. He has shown a lot of awareness about racism and oppression. His relationship with his mom had been improving until she changed her work hours. He seems happy. Seems to be handling the gross motor activities with no problems. Even though he is overweight.<\/p>\n

7) Lonnie Newman \u2013 Lonnie seems to be a well-adjusted person. He seems to have a good relationship with his parents & house parents. Has been prone to sores from time to time. Usually has a very good attitude. Lonnie seems to be handling the gross motor activities well.<\/p>\n

8) Janeliah [Janilah] Wilhite \u2013 This is a very high strung person. I have never known her to take a nap except on rare occasions. She has had a very poor image of herself, but seems to be becoming more sure of herself. Absolutely adores her own natural Dad, and is easily devastated by harshness or rejection on his part. She is bright and seems in pretty good control of her body. She handles the gross motor activities very well. Janeliah is very bright. Seems to enjoy the activities of the children. Very verbal.<\/p>\n

9) Michkell Carroll \u2013 Mikie is very bright, very verbal and very tall. Therefore a lot is expected from her, perhaps we expect more from her than she can handle at times. There are gross motor activities that she needs to work on such as balance and hopping on the one foot. Mikie enjoys doing jobs for her super-<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

C-7-c-13g<\/p>\n

CONTINUATION-TODDLER PRE SCHOOL PROGRAM<\/u><\/p>\n

visors. She likes very much to please adults. Mikie would benifit [benefit] from learning activities that would be challenging to her.<\/p>\n

10) Randel [Wrangell] Carroll \u2013 Randy is a very friendly happy person, smiles and laughs a lot. Has a somewhat impish personality. Randy is very bright, likes to tease but has calm down a lot. Used to cry and throw fits constantly, but this now has been cut way down. I don’t really have an accurate evaluation of his gross motor-abilities at this time. He can be very stubborn and adjatating [agitating].<\/p>\n

11) Angela Conesero [Connesero] \u2013 Angela seems to be a happy well-adjusted child. She has a close relationship with her mom [Versie Perkins Connesero]. At the present time her mom is out of town. She is handling this separation very well. Angela seems to enjoy the activities at school. No real problems.<\/p>\n

12) Jamie Guevara [Jameel Regina Lawrence] \u2013 Jamie is somewhat high strung. It is a real chore for her to take a nap in the afternoon. She is very bright. But because she has been made the shining star in her nuclear family for a long time, her attitude for a long time was somewhat out of hand. This is better now. Jamie seems to have pretty good control of her body and handles the gross motor activities fairly well.<\/p>\n

13) Johanna Davis \u2013 Johanna is very bright and very [missing word] and very verbal. She seems to have good control of her body as she handles the gross motor activities well. Because Johanna is pretty and has long black hair people have made too big of an ordeal [a deal] about this and even at her young age tries to win approval of adults by doing the latest dance or some other “grown-up” action. She very often buts [butts] into adult conversations or talks loudly over them.<\/p>\n

14) Ishi Forston \u2013 Ishi is\u00a0 very bright and affectionate. Will go into a baby act at times, but is better about this lately. For quite a while Ishi was wetting himself uncontrollably and cries or rather cried constantly. He went to visit his mom [Rhonda] for a few weeks and came to back a changed person. I think that the one-to-one relationship was the real order of the day. Ishi has very good control of his body and seems to handle the gross motor skill fairly well.<\/p>\n

15) Tiffany Garcia \u2013 Tiffany is a bright affectionate child. Cries at times for small things, but has improved greatly in this respect. At times she seems to have trouble with the gross motor activities, but this that she has may be due to her visual problem.<\/p>\n

16) Jason Gieg \u2013 Jason is extremely bright, extremely verbal and HYPERACTIVE<\/u>. it is a real chore to get him to take a nap. His attention span is sparotic [sporadic], this seems to enjoy the activities at school. Can get a whole group going by his behavior.<\/p>\n

17) Mark Gosney \u2013 Mark has made real strides since he has come to the program. He is very bright. He studdered [stuttered] badly when he came, but this has disappeared. He has a grandma that smothers him, which I feel he resents as it comes out in certain kinds of play. He also tells her to her face that he dislikes her and he is going to kill her. It took Mark a while to come out of his shell, but has done so.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

C-7-c-13h<\/p>\n

CONTINUATION-TODDLER PRE SCHOOL PROGRAM<\/u><\/p>\n

18) Richard Jackson \u2013 Richard is bright and has combated a lot of sickness that he had in the States. He has matured a lot lately. He seems to enjoy the program and handles the rustler activities very well although he has areas to develope [develop].<\/p>\n

19) April Klingman \u2013 Has made a lot of headway in the program. She used to cry a lot and was pretty much out of it, but has settled down. Still does sneaky things to hurt other children but she does now do eye to eye contact with adults which we had trouble with before. Has a somewhat unstable opinion of her self. Is progressing fairly well.<\/p>\n

20) Kimo Jones [Jim Jon Prokes] \u2013 Kimo is extremely bright and very inquisitive. He shows lots of affection and has a real sense of humor. Seems to enjoy the childrens program. Is going to be a leader as he can be reasoned with.<\/p>\n

21) Rori Madden \u2013 Rori is bright and happy. Her relationship with her parents has improved and she works hard to please adults. She has shown a lot of responsibilities. Handles the gross motor activities fairly well. Seems to enjoy each activity that is done daily.<\/p>\n

22) Danny Berry \u2013 Danny used to throw fits several times daily. But this has ceased almost completely. Has become responsible and helpful usually earns more stars than anyone. He has a sense of humor and seems to enjoy the program. His parents have been making a bigger effort to spend quality time with him. It is a real leader, it is strong in both body and will [mind] and will and yet has a tender side.<\/p>\n

23) Clarence Moore \u2013 Clarence immatates [imitates] a line of older males that he is around a lot. For a long time, he was very disruptive to his group and gave his group leader a hard way to go. He has recently changed group leaders and seems to be doing better. Clarence is very sexual and when the opportunity arises he will be hiding in a tire with a little girl gently caressing them. Clarence tries to come off tough, but is easily devastated if talk to harshly. Seems to enjoy the program.<\/p>\n

24) Raymond McKnight \u2013 Is very immature in several areas. His speech is unclear at times, but is slowly making progress. He used to cry constantly. Then with new house parents made vast improvement. But for one reason or another started crying and acting out a lot. Seems to be unsure and insecure. Has changed homes ago and seems happy. His visual problems more than likely contribute to his being unable to handle Gross Motor Activities very well.<\/p>\n

25) Neil Touchette \u2013 Neal is a very bright happy boy. He seems to be\u2013 He seems to be enjoying the program. He really presents no real behavior problems, occasionally he will react in a normal 3 yr. old way to problems. Is progressing nicely.<\/p>\n

There are certain things that he looks forward to doing, like playing with dolls. Michael is very manipulative and will throw a fit and wet his pants.
