Art Class without support

Here is an e-mail from the art teacher:

Just wanted to let you know that Jackson did well in art class. I
modified the glazing process for him and he was able to handle that quite well. He chose 2 glaze colors and painted them on to his clay piece. Of course I prompted him on what to do at each step. His team was on clean up and he passed out water bowls to each table. I filled the bowls and told him which person to take them to. That person held up their hand and he delivered them. We wore paint aprons and he didn't want to have anything to do with class aprons but he knew where his special Elmo one was at and went over and put it on. This is a great accomplishment because in past years he won't put one on. His glazing did not take as long as the other students so I gave him some Sesame Street art pages that he colored with markers. He seemed to enjoy this a great deal. His progress has been good. He would not have been able to handle all of this movement in past years without getting very loud and out of control. I was very proud of him.

Of course, we are very proud of him too!
