Guest Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 hi i am posting here on behalf of a friend. Her son is at nursery and has recently been put on the SEN register because he cannot count in a rhythm. Does anyone knows what this means and is it something you would put a child on the SEN register for. Apparently he can count be rote to beyond 10 but cannot count in a rhythm - if anyone can tell us what this means she would be very grateful.

Guest Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I agree with Andreamays response, I'd suggest your friend has a chat with the SENCO and ask him/her to 1/ explain what it means to be on the SEN register, how are his individual plans changed (if at all) and 2/ To see observations that led to this conclusion, ask about what their expectations are in terms of his counting ability and to explain what they mean. 3/ maybe ask how he uses rhythm in other aspects of the curriculum such as music. I would say that confidence in using rhythm comes at a later stage. Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
