I teach special education. I have a class of elementary aged non-verbal autistic students. Each day brings new challenges and new learnings - for staff and for students.

Field Trip to the Zoo
We went to the Zoo today. It was great to see how well so many of them transferred hard earned life skills, play skills and listening skills into a new environment. After lunch, they all helped to clean up and one went to look for the trash can with no prompting. In the afternoon, they had a great time playing on the complex play structure at the Zoo. They had to negotiate the physical intricacies of the structure as well as having to move about with lots of other kids.
