"I actually cultivate him more as an ordinary child!"
Xiu Xiu's mother introduced her intervention experience in this way. She is the mother of a Chinese-Russian mixed star baby, and the child's name is Xiu Xiu.
At the age of 3, Xiu Xiu was diagnosed with moderate to severe backward autism (autism), no speech, no looking at people, not treating people, not pointing to objects, not opening his mouth, and no social interest.
But now, the cultivation has made great progress, I have been attending all-day universal kindergarten for more than 1 year, I am accumulating social aspects, and I already have good friends.
So, how do Xiu Xiu mom and Xiu Xiu dad intervene with the child? Today, we will walk into the story of the cultivator.
First, self-reflection, first do a rehabilitation plan
"Xiu Xiu was diagnosed with autism on his birthday, and the doctor gave a suspected conclusion at that time, but the doctor's expression and tone are sad and unbearable to recall now, and it is written to take care of our feelings."
But despite this, Xiu Xiu's mother really does not want to believe that such a child with excellent sports and light in his eyes will be diagnosed with suspected autism.
However, despite the sadness, Xiu Xiu's mother and Xiu Xiu's father are more reflective on their own parenting methods, did not teach children well, did not take children to read picture books, did not teach children to play cognitive games and interactive games, did not take children to socialize well, understand the world, the husband and wife have been busy with work, do not have enough time to accompany children, let children cause children to have problems.
"Xiu Xiu, I'm really sorry, I will make up for you well, I will seriously take you to play, take you to study, and take you to speak again. Let's work together, okay? ”
Xiu Xiu's mother secretly decided. Therefore, before the child receives professional language rehabilitation training, make a rehabilitation plan for the child:
1) Isolate children from electronic products and turn off the TV;
2) Cultivate children's self-care ability such as eating, going to the toilet, dressing and undressing independently;
3) develop cognitive abilities;
4) Improve hand-eye coordination through ball games;
5) use ABA to promote children's ability to follow instructions;
6) Use simple words to "speak" for the child and help him speak;
7) Read picture books every morning and evening;
……
In addition, Xiu Xiu's mother also purchased a lot of related teaching toys for the child to help the child do exercises.
Second, step by step, grow up with children
Rehabilitation intervention for autism is a race against time, scientific early intervention is the best way to cope, and intervention not only requires institutions, but also requires parents to integrate intervention into their children's daily life to ensure better acquisition and generalization of skills, and the two sides work together to maximize the effect of children's intervention.
Xiu Xiu Mom and Xiu Xiu Dad follow this principle and advocate the family + institution approach, first signing up for institutional courses, and then mainly carrying out family intervention, but will consult teachers and doctors in real time, and ask if they don't understand, in order to better scientifically guide family intervention.
Athletic development is excellent, with fewer stereotyped behaviors, mainly language and social disorders. Therefore, the focus of training is around the eyes, instructions and social, training includes cognitive skills training, hand-eye coordination training, large exercise, eye training, concentration training, etc., and interspersed with a number of games, including mosaic games, illusion games, symbolic games, etc., and some simple dialogue interaction before going to bed.
These trainings are not carried out chaotically, Xiu Xiu Ma has made calendar arrangements, and will continue to do assessments, Xiu Xiu Ma and Xiu Xiu Dad cooperate with each other to create a happy and warm parent-child atmosphere, so that the child's practice is carried out in an orderly manner.
Xiu Xiu mother advocates natural intervention, if you want the child to practice the project, you must find ways to make him happy to accept, for example, when the child is playing the game, the Xiu mother and Xiu Xiu Dad first cooperate to enter his game, and then guide him to accept the rules and the content of the intervention he wants to achieve, so that the action must be achieved, even if the assistant holds hands to complete the instruction.
It is worth mentioning that Xiu Xiu's mother will also record the child's training log in detail every day, such as where today's progress is, where is the bad place, and where there is room for improvement.
In the daily records and summaries, the intervention level of Xiu Xiu Mom and Xiu Xiu Dad has gradually improved, and the progress of Xiu Xiu has become more and more advanced, and the ability has become better and better.
Xiu Xiu's mother said: "My lovely and poor cub, mother sees hope in you again. ”
Third, see the clouds and see the day, repair and go to kindergarten
The daily arrangement is generally integration in the morning (there is 1V1, group classes, normal learning in kindergarten), take out swimming in the afternoon, go to the playground, or stay at home, watch TV, play domino, and if you sleep in the afternoon, go out to ride a scooter to play.
After the end of integration, Xiu Xiu has also made some progress, and the needs are expressed more, mainly "I want XXX", the social active expression has "XX good, XXbyebye", and the answer response in the dialogue is "good-looking, fun, delicious, drinkable, funny, happy, happy". In terms of big sports, you can be independent of the golden rooster, and the scooter advances by leaps and bounds and slides fast. In terms of fineness, if someone assists in holding paper, you can take scissors with one hand to cut paper. Social aspects: take the initiative to initiate games such as "playing trains" and "hiking/playing blocks" to your mother, and invite your mother to sing children's songs together.
The next step was very smooth, and the repair soon entered Pratt & Whitney Kindergarten!
A month later, the teachers sat together to review, and found that the progress in revision was too great, there were no emotional problems in school, no longer running around, they could sit in the classroom, they could eat by themselves, they could listen to the teacher's simple instructions and some collective instructions, and they began to have simple small communication with teachers and classmates...
What's even more surprising is that the teacher said that he has been able to enjoy the class and help the teachers do the little things they can.
"The teacher is really good, very good to Xiu Xiu, I am about to cry when I see the photos sent by the teacher to repair and distribute plates!!" Xiu Xiu's mother said excitedly.
In the following time, the teacher will give him different task goals, so that he can slowly acquire skills such as social interaction and independence.
Xiu Xiu's mother and Xiu Xiu's father are also always cooperating, Xiu Xiu's growth in kindergarten has slowly gone up a level, showing more and more skills, no stereotyped movements, no narrow interests, better balance, can also eat by themselves, go to the toilet by themselves, can wear and take off clothes, shoes and socks, and emotional control ability has also become better.
There are many children who like it, can also enjoy the beauty of socializing, and can also follow the teacher to attend kindergarten group classes.
Xiu Xiu also made good friends, and he could have good friends to play with him, and his friends especially liked to invite him home, and they also liked to go out and play together.
"He finally has the ability of other children, and he has the cuteness of other children." Xiu Xiu's mother said happily, "Xiu Xiu's progress is the result of tripartite cooperation, which is inseparable from the joint efforts of kindergarten teachers, as well as the help of my online intervention teachers, everyone worked together to achieve today's happiness." ”
"Hi Mom, I love you!"
And when Xiu Xiu hugged Xiu Xiu's mother every morning and called this sweetly, Xiu Xiu's mother felt that all the hard work was worth it!
Xiu Xiu is really great, Xiu Xiu Mom and Xiu Xiu Dad are even more amazing, know how to use scientific methods to help children grow, but the most important thing is their mentality, Xiu Xiu as "ordinary children to cultivate", and tacit cooperation, perseverance, it is this positive mentality, create a good growth atmosphere, in a short period of time, help Xiu Xiu continue to improve.
Therefore, although the intervention of autism is not easy, please remember that every child is an amazing angel, and every time we extend a pair of hands to children, a patient companionship, and encouraging applause, it is a powerful help to advance.
