Working with Asha, Bangalore

Asha - Academy for Severe Handicaps and Autism is a day school at Basavesvaranagar, Bangalore. I will be working with a group of students from Asha through the course of this project.

Today was my first visit to the school. The school has an eclectic approach and the children go through a variety of activities through the day to acquire various skills. I saw the children engage in fine motor activities- beading, lacing, clips; gross motor activities- Yoga; Communication- Pictures, Text, Cards; self help skills- buttoning shirt and Occupational Therapy(SI). In my next visit I will observe a Computer class, Social skills and Art therapy.
