Ds is 8 and has LD, ADHD, ASD traits and limited language. He goes to an integrated MLD/ASD school, where some of the children are touch or sound defensive. Ds is in nearly constant motion, makes lots of repetative sounds, and touches everything and everyone. These behaviours disrupt both class and play and are not easy out and about. We are rewarding hands to self in half day steps (via home school book), and giving lots of hugs and appropriate physical play and touch at home, but the other behaviours have got worse in class. We are going through lots of bubble stuff before school to try and wear his kissy lips out!
Has anyone any ideas?
Thankyou in advance.
