Michael was born with Down Syndrome which means that learning happens at a slower and more varied pace than normal. Speaking is hard for him so good intelligible speech remains a major educational goal. Michael is interested in reading, Bob the Builder, the Tweenies and having fun. He has a great sense of humor and loves school.
