Week #6

Week 6 was pretty crazy. I worked with different students this week and it made me realize how easy our kids are. One of the boys has autism and is nonverbal, and that's who I worked with the whole time. He loved to swim and was very good at it so we swam laps a lot. One of us would be in front of him and one of us was behind him. It was very difficult for me to sort of read how he was feeling. While we were swimming and I was in front of him, he kept grabbing for me. I don't know if that meant he was tired, or that he didn't want to swim anymore, or he wanted to play a game, or anything like that. So that was a little difficult for me, but it was still fun working with them and getting to know a couple of the other kids who participate in CAPES.
