 Therapy poem

I like going to the gym 
I enjoy going for a swim

Yoga keeps me flexible 
So I am able 

I go in my walker
I don't like to use a speech aid, I am a talker

I like to keep fit 
I renember when I learnt to sit

 At phyiso, I throw a ball 
I can crawl

  I use a wheelchair 
I don't like people who stare

 Independence is the key 
I love being me

Get Over Yourself ... We're Only Disabled Part 12

-
Get Over Yourself... We're Only Disabled! Hey my lovely readers.... Hope you are well. Chapter 12 We’re trying to be as independent as we can   A lot of people with a disability want to get the best out of their lives, and try to become as independent as they can be.  Sometimes, this depends on what disability they have and what is limiting them.  We all require support at times but with the right assistance, we can slowly become a lot more independent as we learn how to do certain things for ourselves. I love being independent and being able to do things on my own, it gives me a sense of doing daily tasks myself and allows me to learn what I need to do and what I need adapted to be able to be independent.  For some people, this might mean they can put the washing machine on without help or for others it might just mean being able to know the difference between ‘yes’ or ‘no’ and being able to use them correctly.  It depends on the individual person and what ...

My first half term at National Star!

-
My exciting but nerve-racking adventure of college! Hi everyone This was a blog that I did for CP Teens, so I thought I'd share it on my blog as I haven't blogged for ages! Hope everyone is well and had a positive couple of weeks! Today,  I am going to talk about my first half of the term at National Star College. It has been a rollercoaster of emotions but I wouldn't change my time there for the world. I have learnt so much and made loads of new friends.  I live outside of campus with 20 other students with a wide range of disabilities and we have all become like a big family. I commute into college which we travel by minibus, I love this as I feel grown up and independent living off campus. At college I am doing a Customer Service course, at the beginning I found it hard work to get used to all of the jobs, and tasks I needed to get done but I have started to become more quicker at tasks and finding them a lot more easier. The best parts of Custom...

Mainstream and special needs settings: The differences

-
Hi guys  This is my first blog in ages. I wrote this for an amazing organisation. I hope you enjoy it. Mainstream and special needs settings: The differences  I have attended both mainstream and special needs schools and college and I have noticed there is a lot of differences between them.  For instance, when in mainstream school I was the only one who was disabled and in a wheelchair. This was hard for me to be able to keep up with my fellow peers as I found that everyone was doing their own things and I wasn't able to keep up because it was too difficult for me to join in. Therefore I was a bit isolated. However, when I started and attend a college for special needs students I felt that there were lots of people in the same position as me and I felt we were able to understand each other on another level and understand how we think and feel about situations that mattered to us. I did enjoy going to a mainstream school as I was able to feel l...
