Basic information: Name: Cheng Cheng (pseudonym) Age: 3 years and 10 months
Cheng Cheng was a crybaby when he first came to Wuhan for the first time in his education, he was crying all the time when he entered the classroom, and as long as he changed a little after calming his emotions, he would cry and cry until the end of class; the hospital examination results were autism, Cheng Cheng's social interaction was very poor, his eyes did not look at each other, he did not respond to his name, he liked to climb high, ran back and forth, had no sense of danger, often fell to the ground while running, and laughed very happily; he was very dependent on assistance, once he let go, if he did not have the first assistance, he would cry and lose his temper, and his emotional management was very poor; he was very resistant to lying prone on the big cage ball or skateboard, and he couldn't do skateboard climbing, and he resisted crawling forward with both hands;
When I first came, I could run, jump, and climb by myself, and I liked to jump very much, bouncing like a little rabbit;
Analysis of sensory integration disorders:
Sensitive to touch, crying, poor emotional management, resisting prone lying on a large cage ball or skateboard, a slightly stiffer massage ball to touch will immediately retract the small hand;
Vestibular insufficiency/self-stimulation, likes to climb high, run around, has no sense of danger, likes to seek vestibular stimulation by oneself to get satisfaction, retinal disorders, eyes do not look at each other, do not track;
The limbs are uncoordinated, easy to fall when running, poor coordination between hands and feet, and unable to climb with both hands.
Training Solutions:
The early stage is mainly carried out through the haptic + vestibular project:
Traverse Walking Balance Board – Students walk back and forth on the balance board for 6 minutes
Big cage ball press - The student lies flat on the mat and the teacher presses the student's body with a smooth large cage ball for 6 minutes
Vertical Holding Tube Sitting - Students sit on the vertical holding tube and hold their hands tightly and rotate backwards, backwards, lefts, and right for 5 minutes
Trampoline Jump – Students stand on the trampoline and jump up and down on their own for 5 minutes
When pressing the big cage ball, he does not cooperate with lying on the mat, he will always move around, use the method of diverting attention, give him a massage ball or building blocks, so as to cooperate with the completion of the project, rotate the vertical tube as long as possible, give enough vestibular stimulation, according to his reaction to judge, the trampoline is also try to jump a little higher;
Emotions are easy to collapse, poor patience, a project to do a few times and do it will cry, this time first appease, and tell him to do it once you can reward him to play on the trampoline, so back and forth to strengthen, when encountering a project that does not cooperate, take it away first, change a favorite project to do, do it and then bring back a little contact with teaching aids, praise and reward, let him slowly contact, to accept new things, step by step;
After class, I also communicated with my parents, and insisted on doing tactile projects at home to improve Chengcheng's emotional problems.
The mid-to-late stage is carried out through a combination of projects, which is no longer limited to a single project:
Balance Board Ferrule – Students take the ring from one end of the balance board to the other end of the ring for 7 rounds
Skateboard drilling----- students lie prone on the skateboard, rush down the slide and drill through the semicircle with their heads down, 6 rounds
Pedaling – Students stand on a handrailless bicycle and pedal forward vigorously for 5 rounds
Balance seesaw toss and catch - Students stand on the balance seesaw and step back and forth and toss and catch the ball with the teacher for 5 minutes
Stretching:
Skateboard Push Obstacle - Lie prone on the skateboard, rush down the slide, throw snowflakes with your right hand, drill through the semicircle, and push the obstacle away with both hands
Pedal Bike Catch - Step on the handless bicycle and throw the ball with the teacher
Phased summary
Chengcheng has also made great progress now, the obvious first is the emotional aspect, there will be no crying behavior during class, emotional management has made great progress, can independently complete a certain project, skateboarding, throwing and catching the ball can be completed together, eye contact time has increased, the call can be answered, and very quickly respond, patience has also increased, the whole class can follow my arrangement very well; 。
