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.

Sharing assembly
The grade one classes hosted a sharing assembly yesterday. Our classes had the opportunity to present a short introductory movie about our students. We focussed on what made our students similar to the rest of the school. The first section was things we liked at school (computers, trips, gym, assemblies). The second section was about how we learn (by reading, writing, watching, doing, touching; alone, with help, with friends). The last section was about sensory needs. It was very well received. While it was playing, all students watched intently and many glanced over at our classes. I've sent a link to the other teachers so that they can show the movie again in their classes to generate some discussion.
