He usually picks this area first during free-choice time, and encourages the same
two or three boys to do the same. After usually about 20 minutes, he notices the
smallgroup area at the tables which is usually a teacher-led activity and almost
always gravitates over there for his turn declaring, I wanna do it, too! He also
very much enjoys large motor movement and outside time he usually is asking,

area where I could see further attention was needed was personal information, I
