Kindergarten Screening

Today, William had his Kindergarten screening at Moorsbridge Elementary school. Phil took a couple hours off work so he could take him. Although William is a clear cut Kindergartner based on his age (as opposed to Pre-K), the Portage schools do the screening to see if the kids may benefit from a year of pre-K. They give the parents the results and let them make the decision. William went to different stations where they tested his fine motor, gross motor, letters, ability to follow directions, etc. and he tested as a solid 5 year old/kindergartner. They said he needs to work on his fine motor skills - specifically holding a pencil. They also think enunciation may be an issue with him.  Those are things we can work on over the summer.   Although it wasn't part of their testing, they were impressed with his math skills.  He seemed to enjoy his time at school - it was nice for him to get to see the inside.
