Autism School Day

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.พ. 2025
- A look inside Abigail's school. Her school is based on ABA principles and is exclusively for children and young adults on the autism spectrum. Each education is catered to the needs of the individual child at her school. Abbie doesn't benefit from traditional curriculum so her education is based around functional learning skills. Some of her day is spent in elective classes like her group music class which uses music therapy principles.

i have so much respect for special needs teachers. they have a tough job. i'm sure they've encountered all kinds of aggression, sickness, physical abuse and yelling. then they just get busy continuing to teach. they are special people, like angels on the earth.
You gotta have a certain gift to do that job.
I’m a special needs and my sister is a special needs and my sister has autism and she can’t talk
I’ve only just seen this now but the amount of disrespect I see from comments like this. We have feelings too and as an autistic I know. Looking and just saying about how hard it is for people to take care of us ISNT nice and it makes us feel even more different and useless, so thanks for that.
There specially trained to be extremely supportive, patient and resilient
@@amymccallan4825 yeah, this definitely made me feel inhuman
I love that Abbie earns the money, she has to work for the correct amount of money and then hand the money over to get her reward. That will help her so much in the future!!
In real life two pretzels are not one dollar if they were everyone would be broke.
Mel B that’s not the point. Abbie is learning that she works/earns for her rewards and that she has to hand the money she has earned over to the staff so she can collect it.
I love how the teacher’s seem very direct but still very loving. I work for a non profit that works with young adults with disabilities and myself having a mild learning disability it just warms me sooooooooooooooooooo much
Elle 1 yrea aog love how the teacher s, seem very direct but
When the teacher said stop Abbie did hands waiting how cute
Hi best parent's in the world. My friend has a son who is going through testing. He also moves his hands like Abby. Do you think abby feels pain. Or is she hurting herself were she may need braces for her wrists.
Alex H I noticed that too! Didn’t even flinch, it just came natural to her. Love it! 💕
@@kristinteal1503 where.
No she is stemming she doesn’t need braces for her wrist.
Kristin Teal Your friends son is stemming
There's always a smile on my face everytime I see Abbie she's so amazingg and she's progressed a lot!!
I love Abbie’s class she was so happy you were there her smile makes me smile
I’m just so impressed by JSA!!! All the teachers, therapist and support staff definitely have gifts and compassion for dealing with this population of students who are often put in regular classrooms with a one on one and expected to learn. JSA teaches these children and adults such important skills that allow them to function in this world. Abbie, you were so impressive!!! Your smile and laugh are infectious and when you are sad and cry, you break my heart. I’ve grown to love your family through the vlog and I tell people about it daily!!! Keep sharing your world with us Maas family, you are educating the world on the blessings of loving someone with Autism and what an amazing family you have. Thank you!!! 💖🧩💖
Always wanted to see what Abby does at her school. Love y’all so much. Thank you for bringing such joy, love and awareness to our lives. Such amazing role models. Bless you all so much 💖💖💖💖💖
Pirsciila Sanchez 1yrea aog Alwasy wanted to see what Abby does ta her school. Love so much Thank you for bringing such joy lov
Maverick is like, do you calm down when someone tells you to calm down?
*half lays down tensely* 🤣
I"LL lie down. I won't like it and I'm not taking my eyes off that fuzxy excuse for a puppy you drug in here!
😂😂😂😂 so true lol
These teachers are such wonderful educators. Seriously. I’ve never seen such an amazing relationship and interaction between a teacher in student.
Then you haven't been in many classrooms.
Abbie’s little section with jumping on the trampoline was adorable. Your never to old for that
The work they are doing in Abby’s school is amazing
I love all those great Abbie smiles today! Especially the ones when she was bouncing on the trampoline. And I loved seeing what she does at school! ❤️ Her school seems like such a special place.
Abby was so cute in her outfit today!!! I almost cried watching her at school. My little granddaughter starts a new school tomorrow. She will be in an all autistic class for the first time. Regular kindergarten was too much for her. I hope she will be more at ease where the lights and sounds are calmer and she is taught in a way she can understand.
Awe Sherri, she's gonna be just fine, 🤗💖
Why was regular kindergarten too much for her?
I got teary eyed watching Abbie work ..she is so amazing I'm such a proud mass squad girl !!!!
Later this month I’ll be starting my new job at a school for people with autism. My interest was largely in part due to your vlogs and this vlog just made me so much more excited.
This was so neat to see inside of Abbie’s school and I’m actually sharing this video with several friends. But Mavericks slow lay down stole the video; that was the most reluctant lay down of ever, lol
This is just an amazing video, seeing all of the things Abbie does through out the day, how the school runs their program, this is simply amazing.
The fact that Abbie was manipulating the ziploc bag to fit everything in it was some huge progress from what you’ve shared in the past. Thank you for sharing some of Abbies school day with us. You can tell the teachers are passionate about all of the kids learning and motor skills.
That was awesome to watch!
Hope Maverick is feeling better from his tummy issues.
That girl was so so so happy to have y’all seeing her do all of the things!! 💕💕💕
No wonder she just wants to chill when she gets home from school! lol
I work with adults with disabilities and the site I work at is a work site so we work with the participants get jobs and also work on site and the people who cant work yet are in class learning different skills and it's honestly so much fun especially when you can see them using and retaining the skills being taught.♡ great job Abs!
Watch this in May 2022. This school for Abby is so wonderful. Everyone should have a special school. Such wonderful teachers.
This has to be one of my favorite videos. Seeing her progress so much fills my heart. I wish I still worked as a manager at Walmart because I’d totally hire her for something. Maybe my softlines dept doing repacks (putting missing socks, underwear etc back into packages people rip open- not returned underwear those get sent back) as it’s something she could do if she gets the assembly line thing down I saw in the video.
She could also do returns in a dept, like the return carts.
Keep going Abby you’re doing great and I’m sure I’m not alone when I say, IM SO PROUD OF YOU!!
Due to watching your videos I discovered a passion for those with developmental disabilities. I am now working as a registered behavioral technician providing ABA therapy to children with autism!!! You’re family is so inspiring and I thank you for spreading awareness for autism. Much love to the Maass family from Michigan 💘💘💘💘💘
I am studying to be an occupational therapist (OT) this year in Australia, I love watching your videos to further understand the wonderful world of autism 😊
Thank you so much for letting us see what Abbie learns at school. Especially with her learning the value of money and helping with pack in the assembly line. That was really awesome to watch her. Keep up the great work Abbie!!!! Love watching Maverick getting used to the cat as well 😂
What a fantastic School!! Truly blessed that Abby has so many great resources. Thanks for showing us her day at school!
I LOVE abbies teacher! she is firm but so caring and just what abbie and all of the kids she works with needs. i wish they had more schools like JSA full of teachers that WANT to help children in this way
Oh she was SO PROUD to show you what she was doing in music. That high five face!!!
Today’s vlog definitely needed showing the amount of love back it showed us! Not just from you guys within the family but also Abbie’s school and the love you’re sharing with your entire community 💜💜 Abbie’s one lucky girl with all the love and support she’s surrounded by!
She seemed so proud of showing you what she does at school, heart warming.
I love Abbie’s school so much, I wish they had more schools here in Australia like this.
HAHA Mav, he’s worried about his new fur sister.
Also wanted to add that my ASD daughter tried Veggie straws purely because Abbie eats them ❤️
Liz Rickards what area of Australia are you in? There’s a fair few in Canberra
@@nikkipuschak544 We're in Victoria, we don't live in Melbourne where they have specific schools for ASD kids. We were supposed to be getting one, but the Government decided that we didn't need one here :(
Liz Rickards ahh I’m from rural Victoria. I know how that goes. Hope you get one soon...
@@nikkipuschak544 try the A e I o u foundation they can help with Ndis and all that goes with it.
Your lucky in australia your schools for disabled children are free while here in the states there usually a lot of money....
Her school seems like a perfect fit for her she’s so smart and turning into a beautiful woman ❤️❤️
I just recently found a video on Facebook that you all have posted on your page and instantly came to TH-cam to subscribe. You both are WONDERFUL parents and Isaiah is an extraordinary brother. I adore the awareness you all bring when it comes to autism. I don't personally have someone close to me diagnosed but have a passion for psychology especially when it comes to children (18 years and younger). All of the therapy that you do is absolutely heartwarming and the amount of patience that you have is admirable. You will ALWAYS have my support and have me as a subscriber. Keep being the amazing and supportive parents that you are. Don't let the negativity of society draw you back from being the best you already are. Abby is progressing so well and I can't wait to see the doors that continue to open for her. Stay happy and stay safe, you guys!!!
Abbie looked so proud of herself after she finished her music😭❤️ I LOVEEE watching her at school.
What an incredible opportunity to look into Abbies school, such amazing work her educators do with all of the children!!! Thankyou so much for sharing that with us and Thankyou for appreciating all of the educators, I can always see and hear it in your voices how much you appreciate them - as a special needs educator myself I can tell you it means the world 💜
As a Speechie, I LOVE the way Abbie's teachers modify their communication to suit each person's needs, without being condescending or 'commanding' the kids. So important!! Plus Abbie responds so well to the combo of ASL and verbal, go Abbie (and JSA)! 👍👍
Abbie was sooo proud to show off to you guys how well she is doing at school!! Super sweet. I adore the kitten - I could hear her purring at the end of the B-roll!! So cute. I hope Maverick chills out a little so they can be proper fur siblings!! Love you all 💕X
I literally tear up and sometimes cry when i watch you guys talk about Maass squad cares. And seeing Abby do so well in class even with the distractions truly warmed my heart and brought tears to my eyes. You guys give me so much joy and hope in this scary and sometimes depressing world. I have major anxiety and your videos take me out of my head and into the real world of happiness and love. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
Love the skills that Abbie is learning at school. They are going to be very beneficial for her future. Cats love to play with plants, hair ties, milk rings and just about anything that moves. She is so cute.
Thank you for showing Abbie's school. I love seeing her interact and learn, and how excited she was to have you there.
Nala is too cute. I feel like Maverick is curious and a little nervous. Like, "What kind of dog toy IS this? Do I play with her? Eat her? Will she eat ME?"
Also, Priscilla, make sure all your plants are non-toxic for cats. She is bound to nibble, especially as she starts teething. Pet stores have taste deterrent sprays to help with training.
I'm pretty sure most of their indoor plants are plastic on account of Priscilla's black thumb. Lol Great suggestion though! Especially with seasonal plants like poinsettias. :)
❤❤❤❤
Abbie is doing so awesome!
I love how engaged she is in making sure y'all were watching her.
I dont have a question but would just like to say that I absolutely love Abbies teacher. She is so in tune with Abbie and the other students, when she means business then she means business and Abbie seems so receptive to her.
FYI there are bitters spray to spray on plants, cords, etc to stop the kitten from chewing them.
Liked the visit to Abbie’s school.
I love getting a glimpse into Abbie's school. The staff seem incredbile! & it really shows how much they care for Abbie. Aww Maverick is just the sweetest.
I love seeing these videos that include school time! They remind me of my brother going to school (he has Williams syndrome). I love all of the practical skills they learn and they are really so important for their independence.
As a teacher, with my certification in special ed, seeing into Abbie’s school was so neat. I got so many new ideas.
I just got certified as a BCBA in Massachusetts and I would LOVE to work at this school (I'll have to check it out (: ). Teaching kids functional life skills should be a priority in every special needs schools. Amazing!
I am autistic and this makes me happy to see that people are so open about how people like me are taught I am very high functioning but to see how the lower functioning community is taught is also very beneficial
What an awesome school Abigail attends. It seems like they incorporate her needs into a loving and caring environment. Its great to see Abby happy!!!
Just started this training for our program and really enjoying all you bring to families and providers!! Love it.
Love this day at school! I had the best time giggling and laughing with Abbie. I don't think I could have done the adult Mom/Dad thing while she was in class. I'd be laughing with her. You guys are fabulous parents. She was such a ball of fun! Her excitement at you being there was just pure love. Beautiful. And great shirt, Abbie. Thanks for sharing
I love that the school is teaching her job skills that will help in the future, such as the assembly line and money sorting skills. Also love how supportive and loving the teachers are. Having an environment that feels empowering and supportive is so important.
I lost my mother to cancer in March, took the responsibility of my sister, took over temporary guardianship of my 10 year old cousin, lost my car to repossession recently, and for about 15-20 minutes a day all of that weight seems so small when I sit down to watch your vlogs... Abby on the trampoline was honestly the highlight to my day. Sure do love you guys!
Im so sorry im loosing my uncle to stage four prostate cancer
Amazing school. I think every state should have a school like this.
The teachers are so awesome with each child. Their so sweet and kind. Amazing job to each and everyone of Yas. Priscilla you look amazing like always
I'm so proud of her!! She was so excited and happy you guys were there, she loves you guys so much
Abbie’s happy sounds during the trampoline she got so happy!
Found your channel from Facebook and I’m so glad I did! I love watching your videos and seeing your life with your family ! Such a great message I’m learning so much! I work as a camp counselor in the summers and am studying to be a social worker I’ve had experience with non typical kids on the spectrum but never had the chance to meet a non verbal kid getting to see how you guys interact with Abby with her challenges and successes is so cool to me ! Very helpful to me as I’m becoming more well informed and I love it ! Not to mention your family dynamic is something to inspire to! Such an amazing loving family 💕
Hello!! I worked several yrs at a workshop in our town...at the time the term we used were adults with disabilities(the title/name changed many times through the yrs). It was a wonderful experience for myself and my two boys who were involved with extra activities we had at my job. It softened my sons hearts for these folks for life💛I absolutely loved that.
I’m so thankful for this experience. We had many jobs for them to work on such as assembly line jobs clipping tags,changing tags,reboxing sunglasses for instance. We also assembled parts for companies,and we also had a recycling center that they worked at plus numerous other outside jobs,mowing lawns,cleaning up around the downtown area etc.
It gave them the experience of being independent,time management,money skills,rewards $$,plus so many other job skills to help them in life. Also we had several folks placed in local businesses w/assistance from a job coach to help them to be confident and productive on their jobs.
Thank you for your videos I enjoy them so very much☀️
Poor Maverick, this fuzzy little cat is taking time from me!
I am just so glad you shared Abby’s day with us. Her teachers and aids are so awesome.
Delayed notifications ugh lol . Abbie you make me smile every day . You will never know how much light you bring to my life ❤️
Those little kitten purrs at the end!!! I didn't think I could love your vlogs more, but I definitely do!
This school is just brilliant with amazing staff💖, she is definitely enjoying bring dad to school day lol. Thanks for the great videos and for bringing awareness to autism. Sending love and hugs to you all from the uk 💖🇬🇧
Abbie’s school is very interesting. Teaching life skills is so important. Thank you for taking us along with Abbie today. 🥰 I just love how your family is so active in the community both with the kids, and helping others
I wish they had more schools like JSA! Abi's improvement is insane! I love how many resources they have, the teachers really seems to support and understand Abi
what a beautiful soul Abigail, a beautiful school to help these beautiful children, and wonderful parents for doing all they can for their daughter
I loved seeing a bit of how the inside of Abbie's classroom works! It makes me even more excited to start my placement in my Child and Youth Care program in Collage. This warmed my heart and I needed to see this today, I was having a rough day at school and was upset and stressed and just being negative.. I watched this video and it instantly fixed my day, It made me realize I'm gonna have bad days but I am working to the thing I want to do most and that is working with kids.
Thanks to ABA my brother now is a mainly calm person with little out burst
So cool to be able to see inside Abbie’s school!! She is doing awesome! I really like how she has to “pay” for her pretzels. She’s learning great skills
Wow, That teacher is awesome. Along with the aides and assistants and therapists and every staff member.
Great schooling for the kids! I'm sure there are a lot of parents out there that are being helped so much just by watching your videos. Bless your little family.
You guys are doing an awesome job, it’s a beautiful thing to have a team behind you. I feel bad for the ones that are doing it on their own that don’t have a team behind them or anyone to run to or talk to
I wonder if you could help build her money skills by using the same fake money at home to buy her snacks
Alex H awesome idea.
Yeah that’s a great idea my daughter doesn’t have autism but I’m going to do it with her
Jacqueline Philipson it def helps identify and it starts making them appreciate money 😂
Great idea 👍
You have a super duper idea there.
The fact that Abby is learning such useful things is amazing to me ... seems like such a great school !
It was so awesome seeing Abbie do all the working stuff in the classroom :) I was a TA for the Special Ed class 10ish years ago in highschool and for the students that were capable and had learned the skills, we would actually drive them to the Wendy's that was close to the school and they would wipe down tables, fill the condiment containers, and again depending on the student and how they were doing that day and how big the order was, they would sometimes carry the order to the customer (with at least one person by their arm.) It was so awesome seeing them grow in the classroom but then seeing them actually put those skills to use in the real world and actually get a paycheck that they earned on their own :) YOU GO ABBIE!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D YOU'RE AWESOME!!!!!
I wish I could be in Abbie’s head for a day, what she thinks and sees and her emotions, she is so super smart!
These baggies need to have a sticker or a little sheet sharing who put these bags together. I think it would make the person receiving know how more special their bag is.
Awwwww Abbie.... You're so sweet, you are so excited to show how hard you work in school... You should be very Proud of yourself...
Watching the school vlogs makes me miss working in that kind of setting so much ! Worked for 5 years as a teacher in a school very much like JSA. Miss it so much ! Only left because I moved and couldn’t find a position like my previous one. Currently teaching at a residential school for students who have EBD. So different. Makes me realize where my passion lies. Thanks for sharing ! Love your videos !
Abbie is doing so amazing! It warms my heart! Also it is a great project for the school. It helps those in need and can also help Abbie and people like her have the opportunity to find jobs in the future. It's just so wonderful!
That kid is a hard worker! No wonder she needs a break and a snack when she gets home!!!😀😀
Gloria Avila that’s every kid
Mother of a very tense boy dog here. Mav looks like he wants to kitty sit to me. Dogs LIVE for a job. It is the truest thing I know. My last girl dog went to the office with me for just over ten years. Every day. Even when I didn’t want to go, she did! When I fostered several litters of kittens, my boy dog was a full time nanny to them. They nursed on his curls! They loved it and thrived, he loved having a job. I hope Mav gets a chance to help with the kitten.
She's doing amazing I love how she goes up to dad while she's in school
I'm not a parent (except of two demanding kitties) but this was amazing to watch. My mom is a substitute teacher and many times subbed for special education classes and loved the affect it had dealing with the kids. This is amazing how they teach them and give positive enforcement to reinforce it.
That was so fun to see that. And the teacher using the sign “stop” was really cool and I feel like Abby really responds to it
I Think That's Just Absolutely Wonderful How They Teach Them These Skills!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED Seeing Abby Work!!! LOVED LOVED This Video @FatheringAutsim
Wow I’m super amazed at the things Abbie gets to do at school! What a wonderful place!
Loved this video, seeing Abbie at school reinforced my feeling that she has been doing SO great and she looked so happy to have Mom and Dad there. BTW, Maverick is NOT wanting to play. That intense stare could easily turn into an attack so please don't ever leave them together unless you are supervising until he shows a lot more "I am relaxed" indicators.
It is so interesting how they help Abbey engage. Loving episode. The school Abbey goes to is amazing
I love seeing Abbie working so hard! Loved seeing inside her school and how great her school is!! Y’all are great parents!!
Oh my goodness!!! Abbie is just KILLING IT! Her doing math with the money is so impressive, I love watching her grow! 💓🤗
My daughter is in the IBI program and I'm able to go in once a week for an hour for observation! I love that they have me in every week because I love being as involved as possible 💙
Thanks for sharing this. It was nice to see how many skills Abby is learning. So many skills. Putting things in the bag, and zipping the bag fine and gross motor skills. Learn how to count and recognition money is awesome, a must skill to learn for independence. I really enjoyed this as a day in the like of Abby! I love that these kids are participating in this active community helpers movement with feeding those unfortunate!
Love the video of Abbie at school and seeing how she learns and what she learns. Jsa seems to have amazing teachers!
The work these teachers do is really other worldly to me. I don't know if I have it in me to do what they do and I'm so glad for this insight to see what is going on around this country. Something positive for once. I wish more of this was on the news! Thank you for sharing another new experience.
I had a tuff day today and just Abbie buying her own pretzel made me happy cry. Way to go Abb
That looks like a great school program. I love that the kids are getting an opportunity to do something for their community with the baggies for the homeless. Win/win.
Wow! The teachers with the piano part was amazing to watch! I loved it 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I love how she looks at you two. Like mom dad look. Look
