MR / Schenectady, NY.Yates Arts-in-Education Magnet School (urban elementary school) Grade 4 .Boy (9, West Indian American and Caucasian, Aspergers Syndrome) takes spelling quiz. Paper to left of his test is his "to do" list, an important aid in his accommodation to a regular classroom. Because he is visually-oriented, the list helps him keep on track. It enables him to expect and adjust more easily to changes of activities, something which his condition makes difficult for him, and it lets him know what is expected of him throughout the day. A paraprofessional has been assigned to help him with his mainstreaming; she is in the classroom but is at his side only when needed..MR: Duc6.© Ellen B. Senisi
