teaching kids about face mask
I am a teacher for special needs, and my specialist is autism. I like to try the ordinary way or new ways with my students.
I like to teach this student (Ali) sometime through coloring or drawing because he likes it.
ndividuals with autism may present a range of symptoms, such as:
Reduced eye contact
Differences in body language
Lack of facial expressions
Not engaging in imaginative play
Repeating gestures or sounds
Closely focused interests
Indifference to temperature extremes
These are just a few examples of the symptoms an individual with autism may experience. Any individual could have some, all, or none of these symptoms. Keep in mind that having these symptoms does not necessarily mean a person has autism. Only a qualified medical professional can diagnose autism spectrum disorder.
Most importantly, an individual with autism is first and foremost an individual. Learning about the symptoms can help you start to understand the behaviors and challenges related to autism, but that’s not the same as getting to know the individual. Each person with autism has their own strengths, likes, dislikes, interests, challenges, and skills, just like you do.
