During circle time, he lays down in the middle of the group and rolls around often kicking children. He goes to speech twice a week. He becomes more disorganized as lunch approaches. His teachers think he is tired and started inviting him in 5 minutes early so he could start lunch in a quieter space and be the first to his cot. His teachers have been creative in placing his cot and after about 6 weeks found a routine that works for him most days. He needs a teacher nearby at nap, a heavy blanket and at least 3 rounds of the song, "You Are My Sunshine." Otherwise he is jumping on his cot and throwing toys. Once he falls asleep, he sleeps almost 2 hours with audible snoring. His mother has expressed trouble getting him to sleep at home and reports he often falls asleep with the Ipad. He doesn't seem to really have a bed time or routine. 2nd grader, Jimena, is home due to the COVID 19 school closures. Usually she goes to bed at 8 and sleeps through the night.
