Transcript of Online course Drama for Autism
“My children have begun to act and enjoy acting. They have improved facial expression.”
“Children, I work with have begun to enjoy body movement/facial expression and are more comfortable in groups. Some behavior issues like aggression have considerably reduced after playing with Drama”
“Games covered in unit 3 were extremely useful. We are doing it on a continuous basis daily for 20 minutes. Kids seem to enjoy and learn from the activities.”
“ I helped a child to communicate”
