ECSE 340 Week 7

This week my home visit went really well. The infant I have been working with is doing very well on her goal, but her mom is not convinced she has met the goal, even though during the session she did. Her mom wants to time her sitting up at different times during the day to see if it makes a difference how well she sits up. Next week we will work on balance and her interpersonal skills while she sits up. I'm concerned that I won't know what to do after this week, mostly because her mom isn't concerned that she isn't crawling at 9 months. She scoots a lot, but her next step from sitting up and balancing is crawling. Her mom doesn't want her to crawl yet.

Working with my Partner, Amanda, has been really good. She helps me with strategies on how I should speak to the parent and she helps me fill out the SOAP note while the mother and I are talking and working with the infant. This week I also want to include the infants father in her strategies.

"RBI's are where we show the parents strategies they can use for their child's goal through out the day."-Sister Swenson, This is not word for word, but it helped me realize how to help the parent apply what we do during and intervention session.
