    PECS is great, used use elements of TEACCH too, found the structure very useful too. Used have a little pecs book attached to my belt with a springy keychain thingy. I was all style! Spent some time working as an ABA tutor too. If I'm honest, I used find mainstream a teensy bit boring at the start when I went back to it :pac:

    I had the pecs book on a springy chain AND a book on gross and fine motor skills, also on a springy chain. All style :pac:

    I love your old job! I couldn't do regular teaching but I'd love to work in a special needs unit :)

    hubby thinks I look back on it with rose tinted glasses :) I'm off on maternity leave at the moment and called back for the Christmas play. My first class in the school are all in sixth class now. Such a proud mammy moment. Was close to tears!!

    Ah the wee pet. It can be very painful to have a build up of fluid, I would imagine. Delighted you got an answer today! I'm sure he'll be flying it within a few months of getting the grommets in :)
