April word jaarliks aan W\u00eareld-outismebewusmakingsmaand toegewy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Nadia van Schalkwyk, \u2019n onderwyser by Karitas Spesiale Skool in Vredenburg, is die grootste uitdaging aanvaarding deur die publiek. Van Schalkwyk werk al 10 jaar by Karitas en werk tans sewe jaar met leerders met outisme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van Schalkwyk meen baie mense in die samelewing is nie goed ingelig oor outisme nie. Sy noem die voorbeeld van \u2019n ma wat winkel toe gaan met haar kind, en die geraas of reuke in die winkel is dalk te veel, die kind kry \u2019n ineenstorting en dadelik dink die publiek die kind is stout en die ouer kan nie haar kind beheer nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOutistiese kinders is baie sensitief. Sommige mense is selfs bang vir outistiese kinders, omdat hulle ook sukkel met gedragsuitdagings.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van Schalkwyk het tans nege leerders in haar klas. Dit is die aangewese maksimum aantal leerders wat in \u2019n outismespektrumklas mag wees, omdat elkeen individuele aandag nodig het en op sy of haar eie vlak is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van Schalkwyk s\u00ea sy het haar onderwysloopbaan as gr. 1-onderwyser by Diazville Prim\u00ear begin. \u201cLeerders met spesiale onderwysbehoeftes wat oorgeplaas is na Karitas, het altyd my hart gesteel. Ek het altyd gewonder wat word van hierdie leerders; wat kan ek doen om hierdie leerders te help. Ek het eendag gaan inloer by Karitas om te kyk hoe hulle met die leerders werk, en daardie dag net daar geweet dit is waar ek hoort.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Margitta de Jager, wat ook \u2019n onderwyser vir leerders op die outisme-spektrum by Karitas Spesiale Skool is, s\u00ea ook sy het nog altyd \u2019n spesiale liefde gehad vir kinders wat \u201canders\u201d is. Vir De Jager het haar ma \u2019n groot invloed op haar gehad. As kind het sy beleef hoe haar ma paraple\u00eb afgerig het. \u201cEk het nog altyd ges\u00ea ek sal eendag met outistiese kinders wil werk. My gebed is verhoor. Hierdie kinders sien die lewe net anders. Hulle is so uniek in hul manier van dink en doen. Hulle moenie by jou aanpas nie \u2013 jy moet in hul w\u00eareld aanpas.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De Jager se hoop vir hierdie leerders is dat hulle beskou sal word as uniek en dat hulle deur die samelewing aanvaar sal word. \u201cDie mens is so geneig om vinnig te oordeel, maar hierdie kinders kan jou baie lesse leer,\u201d voeg De Jager by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By die skool fokus hulle op D-Caps, \u2019n kurrikulum wat aangepas is vir leerders met spesiale behoeftes. Die leerders het ook elkeen hul eie onderrigplan. Soos Van Schalkwyk verduidelik, word elkeen anders behandel. \u201cParty is verbaal; ander glad nie. Vir leerders wat nie verbaal is nie, maak ons gebruik van prente en Makaton, \u2019n soort gebaretaal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Om die kinders nog ondersteuning aan te bied, het die skool \u2019n ondersteuning\u00adspan wat bestaan uit \u2019n geregistreerde verpleegster, Freda Mentoor; \u2019n spraakte\u00adrapeut, Cameron Linnert; en \u2019n arbeidstera\u00adpeut, Emalda Ellman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die terapeute is verantwoordelik vir terapeutiese ondersteuning en die ver\u00adpleeg\u00adkundige vir mediese ondersteu\u00adning van al die leerders by die skool asook di\u00e9 op die outismespektrum. Die span onder\u00adsteun ook die satellietklasse by Diazville Prim\u00ear, Steenberg\u2019s Cove Prim\u00ear, Hopefield Prim\u00ear en in Malmes\u00adbury. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Uitreikkliniek word een keer per maand aangebied vir kinders wat op die skool se waglys is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens die ondersteuningspan is dit belangrik om outismemaand te vier, sodat gemeenskappe bewus gemaak kan word van ander op die spektrum. Die span voeg by dat hy beoog om \u2019n ope dag tydens die bewusmakingsmaand by die skool te hou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van Schalkwyk s\u00ea as mense die moeite doen en regtig \u2019n kind met outisme leer ken, \u201csal hy\/sy jou lewe verander\u201d. \u201cDit is ongelooflik om te sien watter talente hulle het. Hulle het regtig \u2019n soort super power <\/span>wat geen gewone mens het nie. As jy jou hart vir hulle oopmaak, steel hulle hom sonder om twee keer te dink. Nie een dag is dieselfde nie; dis soos om elke dag \u2019n lucky packet<\/span> oop te maak.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n Van Schalkwyk s\u00ea sy haal haar hoed af vir elke ouer van \u2019n kind met outisme. \u201cJulle is ongelooflik en julle verrig wondere.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" April word jaarliks aan W\u00eareld-outismebewusmakingsmaand
