Nature
Nature has a great effect on social and psychological behaviors of the students. It is very important to children with ASD to contact with nature as cognitive, mental health, physical health, social and emotional benefits of connecting with nature.
By letting wild plants take bloom along side intentionally planted flowers, we have created Biodiversity Gardens, Edible Gardens and a Wildflower Field that work as Sensory Gardens and Educational Spaces that aid in a healthy environment for not only children but birds, bugs and animals alike.
