Hello--
I am someone who has worked with children with autism for about 20 years and have to use writing and drawing as a method of calming. I love to write and read stories. I want to express myself in writing.

Time for changes
Time for changes Every year I tell myself I am not going to make any resolutions. I can’t ever really get into the whole thing and I cannot make myself promise something that I feel that I am not going to keep up with. This year is very different. With the world going the way it is because of the pandemic it changed a lot of things that people do.

New Ways
This is new to me and with everything going on in this world it just made it harder to do the simple things. I couldn't even do my job the way that I am used to. I teach children with autism and it's not easy doing this job with my students because I can't be there to actually help them. Doing this through a computer is not the way to teach them. They need one on one/ face to face interactions. Yes, I can see them and talk to them through the computer....but it's not the same thing. They are in their own environment and they have so man distractions in their own home. They also do not always have the most involved parents while they are doing online learning. So, this makes helping them with their work....just a little ore challenging.
