I am Jacob. I am a teenager with autism. Let me tell you about myself. Spanish - Soy Jacobo
Pre-school and Elementary School
When I was in kindergarten, I was able to count, add, subtract, multiply, and divide. I liked math back then. My pre-school years and elementary school years were also times at restaurants and with my family. For example, I went to El Salto, a Mexican restaurant. I also went to Chinese restaurants. Plus I like traveling. When I was eight, I went to Mexico. When I was nine, I went to Ecuador.
Middle School
When I was in middle school, I learned about integers, variables, and graphing in math. My mom says that in middle school, the CCC (case conference committee) for my IEP (Individual Education Program) decided that I didn’t need a math goal. My middle school years were also times at restaurants. I tried an El Salvadorian restaurant. I continued traveling with my family. I went to Niagara Falls on my twelfth birthday. Later, when I was still twelve, I went to Tennessee and Florida for my cousin.
High School
In math, I learned about adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing exponents. Mrs. Monroe, my freshman math teacher, recommended me for honors math. The case conference committee agreed with her. I just finished my junior year and I’m still in honors math. I earned an A in it. I continued exploring ethnic restaurants with my family. I tried a Ghanaian restaurant. I also continued traveling. When I was fourteen, I went to Evansville, Indiana and England. When I was fifteen, I went to Mexico and the Grand Canyon. For my spring break this year, I went to Hawaii.
Future
After I graduate, I will study math in college. Some day, I will try Canadian, Norwegian, and Moroccan foods. In the future, I want to go to Morocco, Alaska, and Canada.
Advice, Recommendations, Suggestions
My advice is that people try their best. I recommend that people try different foods. I suggest that people go to new places. My final piece of advice is to be nice to everybody.
