1 Evidence- Extract from ESS304 Assessment

In the classroom I visited the students who had aspersers, autism, and cerebral palsy.

Two of the autistic students were also non-verbal and communicated through gestures and
visual cards, which were attached to their desk and on a cord around the teachers neck. An
example of one of these gestures was a tilting thumbs up meaning finish.

The student with cerebral palsy had a mobility aid. He did not need to use this all the time
but in the classroom required a chair when students were seated on the floor and was
seated at one of the higher desks in the classroom. This student also required assistance
when using the restroom, this was provided by one of the aids in the classroom.

The students in this class were said to have limited social awareness by their teacher and
that they work on these skills often. This is done through play and learning activities to build
their social and language skills
