Bragging = High Expectations

[Fun&care]

It sounds to me like she is a bit overwhelmed by her new surrounding and as a result things are just not " registering". I had one like this too and it took maybe 2-3 months but she got better...oddly enough her parents were also prone to brag about her achievements most of which I never really got to see at daycare. She also was very well behaved and I never had any issues with her at all but there was definitely a transition period where she seemed a little lost. I would give her more time to get into your routine and your program, while keeping a close eye on her.

It could be as simple as taking time to transition, but could also indicate issues with hearing or a receptive language delay. The things that immediately came to mind as concerning were: the spacing out behaviour/inability to follow directions/inappropriate responses to questions, or her random utterances not related to the topic at hand. Does she make eye contact or carry on reciprocal conversations with peers? Any repetitive behaviours/OCD/facial expressions that don't match the situation? Does she role play appropriately with toys? My gut instinct says to be on alert for anything along the ASD lines. Definitely do the Nipissing screening, and the Ages and Stages questionnaire is more specific as well.

Any chance you have a copy of the ages and stages you could share?
