I worked on my powerpoint this week to finish up. I wanted to find more information about the treatment of DAS. I found pretty much the same thing in most of my searching. I put my powerpoint together so that if anyone searched on the internet they would find this information all in one place instead of searching in all the different places I did. It is all from very reputable sources, as cited in the presentation. I wanted to pull it all together as a whole. I really like the outcome. I had alot of repetitive information on there along the way, so what I did was to find the most easy to read and understand ones to include in my presentation and deleted the others. I hope this is helpful for anyone needing to know about all the different ways to treat DAS. It includes so many different methods, because as we all know Apraxia comes with many different characteristics needing different treatment. What one kid has another might not. So I do hope this is helpful, it sure helped me to see it all put together. I have had it in so many different places so far - it is nice to see it all together.
I saved my powerpoint presentation for last because I felt like it would tie everything together. It was the ulitmate product. My last project was the letter to the parent stating that Michael needed to begin therapy. I also stated that he had a diagnosis of DAS. I feel like the next thing necessary was to provide information of all the different kinds of treatment there is available, and possible plans for Michael-as I am quite sure he would fall somewhere within.
I did my peer reviews this week early on, as I normally do. I like to see what everyone is doing. As always it is amazing work.
I typed up my references thursday I think. (not sure about the day). That was a nightmare. I really hate how the italicizing has to be manually written in. One little mistake and the whole product is messed up. But with much determination I did it I did it I did it.
I also posted just a little while ago my two genre's for Mrs. McComas to review. I ended up typing in the wrong url, but hopefully she found her way. The internet can be pretty tricky for someone that don't have alot of experience with it (LOL LOL LOL).
Ok now that that is out of my system(whew still laughing). Ok seriously though I am really looking forward to finishing this all up soon. I do see the light at the end of the tunnel. It will be a relief to get it all finished.
I am not sure what my final product will look like as a whole-pretty good I guess. I just can't wait til it is over.
All in all this week has topped them all with being the most difficult. I found out some pretty upsetting news about my dad that keeps my mind occupied most of the time. I do hope and pray that it all works out better than it seems right now.
Well that is all I have to say about that......michelle
