Attention Autism Session- Lá Glas

The purpose of our Attention Autism session was for pupils to willingly come and sit for the session in anticipation of shared fun times. The sessions are made up of four different stages aimed at increasing pupil attention and engagement.

Stage 1- The bucket stage is used to grab their attention with fun interesting objects.

Stage 2- The attention builder stage is a little longer. Today, we had a pom pom rocket launcher.

Stage 3- Turn taking and re-engaging stage. Today’s stage 3 was taking turns singing a flag song and waving Irish flags.

Stage 4- Shifting and re-engaging attention- Children took turns spinning green paint on a turntable to make a splatting green mess.
