Saludos amigos, espero que todos estén muy bien, por acá paso a relatar que mi Hijo Mathias se graduó, aunque su año escolar no fue el mejor en cuanto a adaptación y a su inclusión, pues decidieron que por su edad lo debían pasar para 1er. Grado de educación básica.
Cuando empezaron las reuniones para saber cómo iba a ser la graduación me asusté un poco, ya que las mismas no estaban agotadas a él, yo sabía y estaba consciente que iba a estar presentes muchas personas, por ende, iba a existir los aplausos, los ruidos altos, el hablar por micrófonos, en fin, un sinfín de cosas que sé que a él lo iban a alterar, así que lo fui preparando verbalmente, anticipando todo lo que iba a pasar, todo lo que él tenía que hacer para poder recibir su diploma y poder disfrutar de su graduación.
El día llegó, en conjunto con mi esposo tuve que manejar la situación de otra manera, no era bueno que el niño estuviera en la escuela desde temprano, ya que la espera hasta que comenzará el acto se iba a tardar y eso lo iba a desesperar, en lo que yo veía movimiento para comenzar llamé a mi esposo para que se viniera con Mathias.
Días antes había hablado con los profesores haciéndole saber que, una de las adaptaciones que le debían hacer a mi hijo era, que él recibiera todo de primero, cosa que, si se alteraba yo me lo llevaba para la parte de afuera y así no pasaba nada, ellos con gusto aceptaron, otras de las propuestas mías fue, que en el salón donde iba a realizarse el acto, no estuvieran visibles las tortas, ya que Mathias tiene una fijación con ellas y cuando las ve las destroza, así que solo la sacaron a lo último, gesto que agradecí enormemente.
Cuando los estudiantes empezaron a entrar al salón y los aplausos comenzaron, Mathias no queria entrar, lo entendí, era para él un impacto visual (por mucha gente) y un impacto auditivo (por mucho ruido) así que tuve que hablarle bajito, y convencerlo que se iba a sentar con Anna, su hermana mayor, para que él accediera y así fue.
Una vez que se hace el protocolo, se empieza a entregar los diplomas y las medallas, no hubo mayor novedad, Mathias se levantó tranquilo, recibió sus cosas y se dejó tomar las fotos con sus respectivas maestras; realmente era la parte que más me preocupaba, ya que era la parte formal, pero me tranquilice al ver que todo fluyó bien.
Posterior a esto lo que venía era su compartir, el cual le fue bien, se sentó y almorzó con sus compañeros, de vez en cuando salía para correr en una cancha que estaba a un lado del salón, se dejó tomar varias fotos sin inconvenientes hasta que se terminó todo.
A pesar de todo Mathias se portó muy bien, superó momentos como el ruido de los aplausos y el del micrófono y disfruto su compartir, mamá y papá apoyándolo en todo momento y felices de que él estuviese disfrutando.
Greetings friends, I hope you are all very well, I am going to tell you that my son Mathias graduated, although his school year was not the best in terms of adaptation and inclusion, because they decided that due to his age he should be moved to 1st grade of elementary education.
When the meetings began to know how the graduation was going to be I was a little scared, since they were not exhausted to him, I knew and was aware that many people were going to be present, therefore, there was going to be applause, loud noises, speaking into microphones, in short, a lot of things that I know were going to alter him, so I was preparing him verbally, anticipating everything that was going to happen, everything he had to do to receive his diploma and to enjoy his graduation.
The day arrived, together with my husband I had to handle the situation in a different way, it was not good for the child to be at school early, since the wait until the ceremony started was going to take a long time and that was going to make him desperate, as soon as I saw movement to start I called my husband to come with Mathias.
Days before I had talked to the teachers letting them know that one of the adaptations that they had to make to my son was that he would receive everything from first grade, if he got upset I would take him to the outside so nothing would happen, they gladly accepted, another of my proposals was that in the room where the event was to be held, the cakes would not be visible, since Mathias has a fixation with them and when he sees them he destroys them, so they only took them out at the end, a gesture that I appreciated enormously.
When the students began to enter the room and the applause began, Mathias did not want to enter, I understood, it was for him a visual impact (because of many people) and an auditory impact (because of much noise) so I had to talk to him quietly, and convince him that he was going to sit with Anna, his older sister, so that he agreed and so it was.
Once the protocol was done, the diplomas and medals were handed out, there was nothing new, Mathias got up calmly, received his things and let the pictures be taken with his respective teachers; it was really the part that worried me the most, since it was the formal part, but I was reassured to see that everything flowed well.
He sat down and ate lunch with his classmates, from time to time he went out to run in a field that was on one side of the room, he let several pictures be taken without problems until it was all over.
In spite of everything Mathias behaved very well, he overcame moments like the noise of the applause and the microphone and enjoyed his sharing, mom and dad supporting him at all times and happy that he was enjoying himself.
