Jonathan's Preschool Evaluation

This is the evaluation Jonathan's preschool teacher sent about him.

From our class observations, I am pleased to tell you of your child's growth. As we progress through the year, additional incremental goals are set for each child. Please note that preschool development is not linear.
Each area--social and emotional, fine motor, gross motor, cognitive and language literacy usually develops at different rates and intensities. One area usually takes center stage at any given point. While cognitive (facts or rote) information is important----SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT IS MOST IMPORTANT AT THIS STAGE OF THEIR GROWTH. Creativity is a subjective area - I can confirm each child is creative in his or her own way. Please note the following observations are not all inclusive.
