Autism Acceptance Spirit Week
April 15th-18th
April is autism acceptance month. Here is how We are
celebrating at Nowlin!
Mindful Monday (April 15th)– To celebrate the beauty in the diverse
spectrum of the human mind, wear rainbow and/or tie-dyed clothes to
school!
Tuesday, Autism Acceptance Day (April 16th)– Love and acceptance go
a long way. Wear red to show your support and acceptance of individuals
with autism!
What’s Your Passion Wednesday (April 17th)– One characteristic of
autism can be to show incredibly focused passion for topics of interest.
What are you passionate about? Dress up to show something you love! Be
creative 🙂 (some examples: pokemon, sports, Harry Potter, art, music,
superheroes, animals, etc.)
Sensory Friendly Thursday (April 18th)– People with autism often have a
variety of sensory sensitivities. Dress up today in your most comfy-clothes
(school appropriate sweatpants, pajamas, etc.). Teachers use as much
natural light in your classroom instead of fluorescents.
