Playground year 1

stacey1471

Hi,

Still fairly new here. My son age 5 was diagnosed with ASD, high functioning in may.

The current situation i am worried about is:

He wonders around the playground on his own in school talking to him self, sometimes spinning, following playground lines on floor, or running around getting 'breeze'. His fav thing to do! 

He mixes in class but coz he is prompted etc part of his ILP but in playground he wants to be on his own and tells me he is happy like that.

Really i dont kn if im silly to worry as of the above, but i really worry that the kids in his class etc will start to see him as a target as they all grow and mature.

Ive concidered our local 'autistic school if he starts to have problems, but just wanted advise for the current situation, ive said to him maybe if he wants to come home for lunch but he doesn't want to. 

He doesn't talk about school willingley i have to really push for info if im worried, 

He just says 

'yes i got breeze'

'yes i had fun'

And then gets really angry if i try to contintue to talk about it he just says he doesnt want to talk about school. 

Thanks stacey xx

  • Yeah this is true, and i hope that it does turn out fine, he is more than happy to go every day and doesn't display any signs of being unhappy so things are ok at mo anyway. Jus me being a natural worrier anyway! And thinking of 'what could happen' but i supose thats natural.

    I did discuess how things are in the playground from his teachers point of view and she said he does run around playing chasing games etc sometimes with children from his class, i told her what he tells me 'on own, just like to get breeze' etc, he said it must be the way he sees things?

    I did also say to my son 'oh yout teacher said you sometimes play games etc, thats nice....

    He said... 'Sometimes they run around but i am still on my own ?? and i prefere to get just breeze' 

    Maybe he does see it differently, but he has never said that he has played?? I wonder if he kns what 'a friend' or 'playing togeather' is??? 

    For the first 7 months of school he refered to everyone as having a partner i.e 2 boys being partners i think this was related from partners like batman & robin etc friends/partners.. 

    Thanks for your reply.  Any more welcome lol x
