My son who is also 11, has been on 3 for quite a long time. We are using the Lickety Split sequencing CD's. I have noticed that if we start the morning with some light gross motor activities, something relaxing and easy for him, and then go to the sequencing activities (both auditory and visual) he can progress from a bridge of 2-3 to a 4. The best time for him is to do it right off the bat in the morning when he is fresh. As parents of DS kiddos know , they sometimes can get stubborn and just don't want to budge...so that is a subject apart....Some ideas may be: looking forward to doing something he really likes (like The Learning Company Reader Rabbit's or the Carmen Sandiego or even PS2 Call of Duty...which unfortunately his big brother has taught him how to navigate....can help to keep him at it for a while longer. I do believe that practice makes perfect here, even when it looks like there is no progress. Just my 2c. Hi,
