Yesterday when I picked Evie up after school, her teacher Mr F asked if he could have a chat with me...
...so I said that we could do it then (so as to get it over and done with and to stop me fretting what it might be about).
It was mainly about her lack of socialising with the other children in her class. He said that she had started to get better with it up until the Christmas holidays but had gone backwards again since coming back from the 2 week break.
He said that he is going to get her to play with different children throughout the day.
I told him that Evie had gone to a birthday party on Saturday (she had 2 to go to at the weekend), and had she told me that she was playing "Mummies and Daddies" with R & M (so she is definitely forming new friendships).
He asked me to let him know what things she likes playing with, so I told him that she likes best what her pre school called "small world" toys.
He also asked about her eyesight as he says that sometimes she cant work out where she is! I told him that she is due to pick up her new glasses during half term as her prescription had changed slightly.
He also said that she has trouble following instructions and I told him that she is the same at home as well.
On the plus side he didnt bring up her getting dressed slowly or eating slowly :)

It's good that the teachers are giving Evie plenty of attention. By the next end of term (is that Easter?) she'll have come on in leaps and bounds.
I don't know but maybe she's a bit shy because she's an only child, no brothers or sisters at home to play with, although on second thoughts my two used to argue more than play together :-)
yes the end of term will be easter :)
It is good that they are picking up on these things and knowing what level the kiddies should be at socially.
I have always thought that being an only child is probably contributing to her shyness...
Some kids just move at a different pace to others. She'll come along.
