Hali'a Update

Halia is beginning to:

  • accept redirection from adults; to experiment with different ways of balancing; manipulate balls or similar objects with stiff body movements; to identify familiar people, animals, and objects when prompted; to use some words and word-like sounds and is understood by most familiar people; sustain interest in working on a task, especially when adults offer suggestions, questions, and comments; practice an activity may times until successful; explore and investigate ways to make something happen; to imitate others in using objects in new and/or unanticipated ways; imitate actions of others during play; use real objects as props; join in rhyming songs and games; follow simple directions related to position (in, on, under, up, down).
Hali'a:
  • seeks to do things by herself; uses trusted adults as a secure base from which to explore the world; reacts to others' emotional expressions; expresses feelings during a conflict; uses fingers and whole arm movements to manipulate and explore objects; grasps drawing and writing tools, jabbing at paper; follows simple requests not accompanied by gestures; engages in simple back-and-forth exchanges with others; recognizes familiar people, places, and objects; looks for hidden object where it was last seen; looks for familiar persons when they are named; related objects to events; recognizes people, objects, and animals in pictures or photographs; shows interest in books.
