11:00 PM . ← CASE STUDY ⠀ CASE STUDY Anita is 13-years-old and is in 8th grade at Calamansi High School. She has a diagnosis of autism and tests with average intelligence. She can read well, but there are often questions about her comprehension, especially when there are abstract concepts or when higher-level thinking is required. Anita is a whiz at math calculations, but struggles when she has to apply or to problem solve these skills. While Anita is fully included, her teachers are concerned because she does not take care of her appearance and she dresses in ways that make her look odd. Anita often speaks out in class at inappropriate times. She often gets stressed because she gets confused about her schedule and assignments. While she means to keep up with her work, she often forgets or loses papers. Anita's parents are very protective and have kept her at home a great deal, so she has not learned many community living skills that she will need for independence. Students make fun of her, and she does not have many friends. Anita's teachers are concerned about transition to the 9th grade. Anita seems spatially confused. She gets lost in the school and cannot find things in her classrooms or locker. Her desk and locker are a mess causing ridicule from other students. When teachers or students have shiny jewelry on, she often stares at it for extended lengths of time and wants to touch it. Anita will be wearing heavy sweaters when others in the room are hot She may be drinning 11:00 PM . : ← CASE STUDY apply or to problem solve these skills.

She may be dripping with sweat but doesn't seem to think to take off her sweater. She says that she works best at home with music on because then she isn't distracted by other sounds. Anita is fairly alert in the morning, but by late afternoon seems tired and not with the class. Anita does her best work by herself when given explicit instructions. She needs to learn to work with others.
