Hi


How do you teach gesturing and pointing to non verbal asd toddler?

Need to teach child how to request for help.

Hi, teach the child to tap at your hand if they need help. As for gesturing perhap to start off with you can try to take the object in front of the child and make them point first to let them know what is require .

Hi please let yr child try Pathlight since he has been accepted. So once you are in the school teacher will advise if they find that your child can/able to fit into mainstream setting. From there you can decide if you want to let your child continue or let him complete the 1 yr in Pathlight and re-register for mainstream P1.

my boy is due for P1 next year. I was just informed that he’s been accepted to pathlight p1 standard.

Therapists feedback is that he’s more suited for mainstream environment, and if I feel that he’s not too ready, a deferment i.e. repeat K2 is recommended. PD has suggested I send him to pathlight for P1 in 2017, and then withdraw him and make him repeat P1 in a mainstream school in 2018. Just checking if anyone has done that?

I’m not sure whether I should make him repeat K2 or to send him to P1 mainstream next year. Anyone can share your views or experience?[/quote]
