In preparing for the P1 pre-seen case study, I watched a brilliant 45-minutes BBC Four video with my students in class called “My Family and Autism”...
It’s a documentary about a teenager who lives with his mum and seven siblings - all four boys has some form of autism. Luke Jackson is the star of the video and provides some amazing insight to how autism affects young children. For my students, it seems to have really helped to add substance and context to the Reach Out case study.
Check out Luke Jackson’s story on the BBC Four website and the BBC news article here. Students might even want to follow him on Facebook.
Try to get hold of the documentary if you can.
