Today was Valentines Day, and Santino participated in a fun and festive activity with other students in the lunchroom celebrating both the day and Miss Judie Batt Yarnell's birthday. He enjoyed navigating around the room and observing the other children as they interacted with one another, sang happy birthday, and delivered several sweet birthday messages to Miss Judie. I explained to Santino what was going to happen and what to expect would happen next. For example, I said “After we finish singing happy birthday, it will be time to work on our puzzle." Santino had no difficulty transitioning to the next activity. We also played with several musical instruments producing sounds and counting aloud to the beats. I afforded Santino hand-over-hand instruction to facilitate successful engagement and participation in this activity. It was a fun and productive day.
