Hello fishes. I received a call from Iberis technologies saying they are hiring for Lenovo. Recruiter said I will be on payroll of iberis until 2 performance reviews and then I will move under the payroll of Lenovo. But they are not ready to give that in written. Also she is saying Lenovo doesn't hire people directly nowadays. They have to go through other vendors payroll before they become permanent with Lenovo. Is it true?

Provide a first/then visual so the student knows what to expect, set a timer for each task, and provide positive praise or reward when the transition is complete.
Along with the visuals model it. Point to first .. the model the expected behavior/task. Then finish (use a visual to show it stopping too) and then model the Then expectation ..
If you think this student understands what’s asked of him it might be related to his ASD disability.
Transitions are very difficult for ASD kiddos. Often times they find it very hard to transition from subject to subject (in the classroom) as well as transitions from place to place (e.g., class to specials, specials back to to class , etc. They also hate leaving the classroom for fear they will miss something (won’t go on a break, etc).
I’ve used the ‘parking lot’ strategy with ASD kids who feel the need to finish one task before shifting to a different task (math to reading, etc). Ive seen kids have a meltdown when pushed to move on before they finish.
I teach these kids that they can put their unfinished work in the parking lot to complete the next day or at a later date. It does cause some anxiety and resistance initially, but if they see (experience) that they can complete a task later that day or at a later date they will use this strategy . It’s like 2nd nature. The parking lot can be a specific folder or a specific shelve in the classroom. Make it a place that your student can see (ASD ppl are typically very rigid, rule bound, concrete thinking/literal, perseverate, etc).
I also use ‘first/then strips’, lots of visuals and social stories. Good luck!
First, then strips are great. And transitions are tough for ASD children. Physical pictures help to guide the child through their day of transitions. Your parking lot idea is something I might borrow for my own classroom!
Try core board. And use a lot of pictures paired with words
He needs visuals of what’s being expected of him. Autistic students often become fixated on things and work best when they know & understand their schedule and/or center rotations. Transitions are often a difficult time for them without the proper accommodations in place.
Maybe he is not sure what the task are. Be patient and when God has you you have nothing to fear.
Agree! Probably not understanding what's asked of him. Yes give him a little time this is new language for him
Apply all the necessary rules to be safe. Connect and ask the General Education teachers the work they’ll go over in advance. Find someone preferably a teacher or friend who can speak the same language. Make out visuals although he needs to hear English so he can make improvements. Use gestures, get an IPad to help quickly with translation and pictures. Go the extra mile to get ready to cross a new bridge by learning a new language. I wish her the best on this journey as a para. Once again, welcome!!!
To have another language is to possess a second soul.

My advice is, “Ask the teacher for advice”.
I would use lots of picture and non verbal prompting. PECS is great and also visual schedules with a “first/then”.
She’ll be great! The fact she’s asking for best tips is a good sign.
I use very simple sign language with my autistic students, granted they are in HS. Less is more with them👩🏫
Consult with the speech-language pathologist who is working with her.
