Introduction

My first initial impression of Evan was that he was very musically inclined, or he really likes to make different sounds. Early in the semester in preschool room during self-play he would always go to an instrument. It didn’t matter if he was all by himself, Evan would be playing one of those instruments. His go-to instruments were the piano and the xylophones that are placed outside. His full name is Evan, he is a Caucasian male and about 3 and a half years of age. Evan stands at 3 feet 4 inches tall and weighs a total of 37 pounds. He lives with both his mother and father throughout the week and stays with his grandparents on the weekend. His mother Kelly is 35 years of age and works at the Big Brother Big Sister program. His father, also 35 years of age, works at ITW Hi-Cone. Evan also has a older brother that is 3 years older than Evan, he’s 6 and has also been thru the program here at Eastern. This information comes from his file.

Physical Development

Emotional Development

Evan is extremely expressive and can be very independent because he does things on his own very often especially during free time. He is very social as well, he loves to speak up about thing he has experienced during activity time. Another reason I noticed how independent he is, when asked to put object in cubby after the large group activity, Evan went directly to the play area by himself to the play area without being told and proceeded to play by himself with the telephones on the side of the room. Evan sometimes can be aggressive while playing and may take a toy from someone while another child is playing with it or he might take a object from a friend during activities but over the course of the semester he has became a lot better at sharing and playing with others.

Social Development

Evan loves to communicate with everyone although it is sometime difficult to understand he is very interactive during activities. Will stand up while teacher is reading a book during the large group activity time and will need to be asked sometimes more than once to sit down. Will also stand up and reach out for object being passed around. Not only will he stand but he has no problem interrupting and talking about the object or something personal. Often makes sure he eats all of his food during snack time even if that means he’s the last to the activity. He will quickly lose interest and begin to play with hands and or talk. He is very helpful especially when it’s time to clean up. Evan has no problem at all cleaning up after himself and others. He does what is asked of him, sometimes it may take more than once but never disrespectful toward caregivers.
