“These activities are very important for children with autism spectrum disorders because they help them develop some of the areas that are most affected: communication and concentration,” said Yolanda Gonzalez, a support teacher at the school, adding that in this way their minds are filled with new ideas that they then express in ways different.”
Jordanes Serra, actor and narrator on Words to the Wind, commented that the story is the company’s starting point in working with children, as it is the first intelligent manifestation that brings them closer to the art of oral narration.
He emphasized that the primary purpose of his work in the field of special education is to seek the spontaneous participation of infants, and from music and dance helps them form images and emotions that can later be part of their daily coexistence with teachers and family members.
