This bowl may look simple, but for us, it represents so much work, patience, and growth.
This was my toddler’s preferred and requested after-school snack—something I once wasn’t sure we’d get to say so naturally. 🥕🥒🍇
She was born with a lip tie and tongue tie and spent a year and a half in feeding therapy, learning to tolerate new textures, strengthen oral-motor skills, and bring her tongue into a functional resting position. There were moments of uncertainty, but we stayed consistent, trusted the process, and leaned on the right support.
With the incredible guidance of Ms. Krystle from LI Speech & Feeding Therapy, she has come such a long way. Today, moments like this feel like quiet victories—and they matter.
A reminder to families and educators: progress doesn’t always look big or loud. Sometimes it looks like a small bowl, a confident request, and a child feeling safe with food. And that is everything. 💛

Today we enjoyed learning about the amazing artist, Jean-Michel Basquiat. We read the story “Radiant Child” by Javaka Steptoe📖Loved that my students recalled that the previous day we called Michelle Obama a Queen and today we called Jean Basquiat an Art King. You know we’re here learning about Queens and Kings during Black History Month💁🏽‍♀️👸🏾🤴🏿After reading the story, we followed a guided YouTube video to make a dinosaur following Basquiat’s artist style🎨👩🏽‍🎨🧑🏼‍🎨👨🏾‍🎨🖌🦖

We are absolutely loving/liking/preferring our ELA Opinion Unit. Today I introduced the topic of choosing a book we like. Our focus today was to identify a book we like followed by identifying our favorite part of the book. As a model, I used 🇩🇴📖 one of my absolute favorite books by 💕I started by saying that I was Dominican and was happy to see other students raise their hand to identify as Dominican when I asked, “Who else is Dominican in our class?” I continued by identifying my favorite part of the book where the girl looks like me and her curls are like mine, making a self to text connection. I also read the words on the page and made a connection to “merengue” which is the primary type of music listened to in The Dominican Republic💃🏽🕺🏻Tomorrow we will be digging deeper to identify “why”?!

Does your child have a limited diet? Do you want to introduce new foods? This reinforcement/token system lets your child earn a preferred token for every bite taken of the new food being introduced. It can be used with a choice board or a First/Then board and individualized to fit your child’s needs. In this case the tokens are vehicles and will be individualized according to the child’s preference. Once the goal is met i.e (First)5 bites of the new food item your child earns the (Then), a lollipop. Included is an example of a 10 token system which is used during fading. Fading is part of the behavior intervention as we want our children to eventually complete the skill with as little reinforcement as possible.
