Enhancing Communication and Engagement: Lessons from Recess Time with Nick

This reflection highlights my experiences working with Nick, an exceptional child, during recess at Rose Park Private School in Holland, MI. Under Mrs. Hansen’s guidance, my journey involved hands-on activities, including gym class, swing play, and communication techniques. I focused on understanding Nick's verbalizations and avoiding confusion, aiming to foster a supportive environment. Collaboration with Tammi, Deb, and insights from educational resources reinforced strategies for inclusion, patience, and effective interaction, ensuring a more comfortable experience for both of us.
