Preschool-inclusion

A few months after Maddux turned 5 we moved to North Carolina where Maddux experienced her first inclusion classroom setting. It was this year that I wondered why she had not been in inclusion until now. This school year was key for her because it was the first time Maddux was exposed to typically developing children and she did not have a one-on-one aide. Her language soared and her parallel play was starting to improve. Nina, Jason and Eunice worked with Maddux so hard this year and she really made more progress this school year than I have ever seen. "People" can no longer say that children with Autism are unteachable. If they are not learning then you need to change the way you are teaching.
