Sitting tolerance is a crucial skill for children as it serves as the foundation for learning, social interaction, and overall development. It refers to a child's ability to remain seated and engaged in an activity for an appropriate period, depending on their age and developmental stage. This skill is essential for success in school, where children are required to focus on tasks like reading, writing, and listening to instructions. Without adequate sitting tolerance, a child may struggle to participate fully in structured activities, potentially hindering their academic progress. Beyond academics, sitting tolerance supports cognitive and emotional development. It helps children develop attention span, self-regulation, and patience, enabling them to persist in activities that require sustained focus. These abilities are critical not just in childhood but throughout life. In social settings, sitting tolerance allows children to engage in group activities, follow routines, and interact with peers. For example, activities like sharing a meal, participating in storytime, or playing board games require children to sit and focus on a shared task. Building this skill helps foster cooperation and positive social interactions. #RaiseAgainstAutism #PinnacleSaysItAll #PinnacleBloomsNetwork #1AutismTherapyCentresNetwork

There seems to be a debate about whether or not it’s good to copy when drawing. Some say no, others say yes. Did you know they used to do that in the old school of art where new students were made to copy from drawings and prints of their masters. In fact, they would spend the first year constantly copying from prints, or from the ‘flat’ as they called it, which was taught as being good practice. Why was it good practice? Well, in life, we all learn by copying. For example, we copy our parents behaviour and in some measure we become like them through their example. We learn to speak their language, inherit their mannerisms, develop similar behaviour patterns and so on. Copying is something we do as growing children. A baby’s mind is a blank canvas. We knew nothing about life, about language, eating, toiletry, walking, behaviour etc. It was during those early years while we grew into infancy and then into childhood that we picked up all the skills we need for life by copying our parents. The same process is also found in much of the animal kingdom. Copying therefore, is a learning process. We try to emulate our masters of life skills. So what about copying artwork? Can we look at that process in the same way? I feel we can. In fact, I feel we should copy. All art schools, ateliers and online tutors should encourage copying as it was in the old days. #RaiseAgainstAutism #PinnacleSaysItAll #PinnacleBloomsNetwork #1AutismTherapyCentresNetwork

There are two aspects for effective verbal communication; one is 'what to say,' and another is 'how to say.' People good at verbal communication can easily ask some questions or express the information with confidence. They also know how to represent their words so that people can easily listen. "Written communication also involves the use of words. So, is it a verbal communication?" ADVERTISEMENT Advertisement Yes, Written communication can also be considered as verbal communication. Reading books, papers, letters, etc. means decoding the views of the author to learn more. Verbal communication is all about the words, which can be spoken or written. Listen carefully We should be well prepared to listen. We should concentrate on the conversation with the speaker rather than thinking about what we will reply to. Maintain eye contact We should always maintain eye contact with the speaker during the conversation, either in a meeting or personally. The proper eye contact depicts that how much we are interested in his/her thoughts. It is also a sign of appreciation for the speaker. Avoid distractions We should avoid any distractions during the communication, such as checking mobile phones, people passing nearby, opening and closing doors, etc. If there is a lot of noise, we can suggest moving to another place for communication. Do not interrupt the speaker. We should not interrupt the speaker in between the conversation. It seems like disrespect for the speaker. #RaiseAgainstAutism #PinnacleSaysItAll #PinnacleBloomsNetwork #1AutismTherapyCentresNetwork u

Pre-writing skills help us to improve handwriting skills, build fine motor skills and gets children ready for a successful learning to write journey Practising tracing lines, shapes and mark-making are all important steps a child must take before they are ready to learn to form letters and words. Here we are discussing all the reasons why these beginner skills are essential for a child's education: Builds independence & confidence Developing fine motor skills make it easier to learn to hold a pencil correctly and comfortably, meaning children can enjoy writing for longer periods of time. When a child learns to comfortably hold their pencil in the correct dynamic grip, form letters and organise their ideas on paper, they gain confidence in their writing ability and become confident independent writers. Learning with a positive attitude motivates children to challenge themselves and want to achieve more, this confidence extends beyond learning to write and positively impacts other areas of a child’s academic and social lives. #RaiseAgainstAutism #PinnacleSaysItAll #PinnacleBloomsNetwork #1AutismTherapyCentresNetwork

EXPRESSIVE LANGUAGE Expressive language is important because it enables children to be able to express their wants and needs, thoughts and ideas, argue a point of view, develop their use of language in writing and engage in successful interactions with others. If a child has difficulties with expressive language they might: Have difficulty naming items and objects. Not link together words or uses sentences that are shorter than others of the same age. Use sentences that sound immature for their age. Not be understood by unfamiliar people. Have difficulty finding the right words to use in conversation or when describing or explaining something. What activities can help improve expressive language? Name items together when looking at a book, in the car, looking outside, in play, while they are playing, whilst shopping. Choice-making: Offer the child choices so that they are encouraged to use words to make a request rather than relying on gesture. Day-to-day activities: Engage in lots of “day-to-day” activities (e.g. going shopping, to the park, to the zoo, to the museum) then talk about/draw/act out what you did and saw. Play something together that the child really enjoys and throughout the game model new words and phrases. Look at books together and talk about what you see. #RaiseAgainstAutism #PinnacleSaysItAll #PinnacleBloomsNetwork #1AutismTherapyCentresNetwork

Amid face-to-face addressing, regularly creating children and grown-ups utilize look revultion (GA), absent from their examiner, when considering. GA increments with address trouble and moves forward the precision of reactions. This is the to begin with consider to examine whether people with extreme introvertedness range clutter (ASD; related with decreased friendliness and atypical confront look) and Williams disorder (WS; related with hypersociability and atypical confront look) utilize GA to oversee cognitive stack amid face-to-face interactions. Autism range clutters cover a extend of inescapable formative impedances that have a specific impact upon the way an person capacities and interatomic socially. Extreme introvertedness is characterized by serious disability of social working, a need of intrigued in social intelligent, and irregular eye contact (e.g. Frith, 1989). Undoubtedly numerous of the classic portrayals of the clutter center on a need of intrigued in others and the atypical utilize of look (e.g. Master et al., 2000). Willemsen-Swinkels, Buitelaar, Weijnen, and van Engeland (1998) looked the look and social practices of children with unavoidable formative clutter (PDD; 11 of 19 had extreme introvertedness) in parent–child intuitive. #RaiseAgainstAutism #PinnacleSaysItAll #PinnacleBloomsNetwork #1AutismTherapyCentresNetwork

How do we replace the Behavior? Explain with one example. Replacing unwanted behavior involves identifying the behavior, understanding its triggers, and introducing a more desirable alternative. This process is commonly used in behavioral therapy and works best when applied consistently with positive reinforcement. Example: Replacing Nail-Biting with Stress Management Techniques Step 1: Identify the Behavior and Its Triggers Suppose a teenager has a habit of biting their nails, especially during stressful situations like exams. The first step is to recognize that nail-biting is a response to stress or anxiety. Step 2: Understand the Underlying Cause The teenager might bite nails as a coping mechanism for nervousness. Understanding this helps focus on addressing the cause (stress) rather than just the symptom (nail-biting). Step 3: Replace the Unwanted Behavior with a Positive One Introduce an alternative behavior, such as squeezing a stress ball or practicing deep-breathing exercises when feeling anxious. These actions serve the same purpose (stress relief) but are healthier and less harmful. #RaiseAgainstAutism #PinnacleSaysItAll #PinnacleBloomsNetwork #1AutismTherapyCentresNetwork
