Since her mom works at a school I was able to see Lilac use scissors well playing in a math center in the classroom before we signed her out. Lilac was able to hold the scissor correctly and cutting the piece of paper she wanted. Lilac is also in the developing stage of measure 43 by completing her assignment and is able to leave the supplies at the table before getting up.

When I was observing Lilac a student started to cry and Lilac just stood there not knowing how to respond to the child.
C). Cognitive Developmental
