Students with Disabilities

I have a student in my first grade class with autism. He usuaLly responds well, but seems to be having problems socially. To help, every morning during our morning meeting, students are assigned a buddy and discuss a given topic. At first this was a challenge, but it has become a little easier. He has a helper assigned to him to assist with keeping him on task. She normally sits back and when he becomes frustrated, she will be right there to assist him. It has been challenging for me to learn his personality and how he responds to certain things that happen within and outside of the classroom. This has been a learning experience for me! I have had students with disabilities, but not as servere as this. He needs specific, short directions. Multiple step directions frustrate him. |
