I have a student with autism and he is very sensitive to loud noises. Every time we have an activity that requires us to sing loudly or clap his hands, he withdraws from the group or covers his ears. I do not want to exclude him from the activities that I have prepared for everyone. I talk to the rest of the group so that we cooperate to avoid making exaggerated noises to get him to integrate again, or on other occasions I explain the type of activity that we will be doing and he withdraws a little with another child who accompanies him. He is functional in other activities that do not require so much noise. I always go to him to give him the most direct instructions and he always has a partner who supports him. He likes to sing and I see that he enjoys it, but the noise must be moderate so that he can integrate or sometimes he asks to do it without the help of others. |
