Mana's racing car

Last week I spent some time with Mana doing the racing car puzzle. Mana requested this puzzle, as it's one of his favourites that he has completed many times. Mana is always so excited to do any of the floor puzzles because this is an area of interest and he feels confident that he can do it all by himself. On this particular day, Mana asked if I could help him, but then said, "I can do this puzzle all by myself, but I want you to help too", which I thought was nice. It was so great to see a sense of accomplishment in Mana when he had finished it; he was very proud. This is a great example of how Mana takes responsibility for his own learning and how much the confidence in himself has grown since he has been at KIDSPACE.
