Hi! Dsis is in a bit of a state this weekend as she's started a job this week as a 1-1 with a six year old boy. He needs 1-1 for challenging behaviour, no Sen diagnosed yet but ADHD and ASC being considered. The problem is, she can't even get started with him, she has a folder full of beautiful visuals, a work station, individual timetable, activities and materials that he'd enjoy and a well equipped sensory room and soft play BUT he just won't go near her. As soon as she so much as says "good morning" he swears at her, backs away and refuses to talk to her or cooperate. Could I ask for your ideas please about how to build that initial bond and gain his trust please? Thank you.
