Maybe do a parent helper day? Its a real eye opener watching the dynamics with all the kids, how they all behave and interact with each other. Very interesting. Could give you your own look at how your son interacts and how others interact with him.
I would start with doing a kinder duty and then speaking to the teacher about getting him assessed if you still have concerns. There are a couple of children being assessed at our kinder.
I did kinder duty a few weeks back and it was a real eye opener watching the dynamics of the group. While I was there a lady (assessor) came and spent 2 hours with this child which was just playing with them and being right there when they were playing with other children...One minute the child was playing in a dolls house with a couple of other children and in a split second this child had thrown a wooden piece of furniture at another childs face...even the assessor didn't see that coming...things happen so quick!!!
I think organising a playdate with another child at kinder is a great idea!!
