“Good Job Miguel” Ms. Michela said in response to his physical movement letter.

Childs camera was blurry (or my camera was blurry so I was only able to get this short interaction with teacher and student)

In opening greeting song child seems to be more interested in the adult by him. He shook his hands and paused his movements to look off screen.

Teacher: “Who came to school today, who came to school today, Hello Miguel.”

Child moves his hands excitedly to the screen while opening his mouth wide and greeting Mrs. Ruby in return.

Teacher: “Miguel the one you have a little bit I want you to share it with Mommy so she could have a snack. “

Miguel does not respond to teacher, but he lifts his shape and gives it to his mother that is off screen and continues to chew on the cereal. He uses both hands to pick up cereal and plays with cereal by putting it on his upper lip. Then changing this by using one hand to put in his mouth then the other.

Teacher: “Miguel would you like to lead the song? “

Child specks but his microphone is off but he is making the moves for the song” Its small group time right now” Mrs. Ruby assist the child in the song by continuing to sing the song.
