My French teacher, for our anatomy unit, asked if anyone knew the body part before she revealed what it was. Example: teach: does anyone know what neck is? Person 1: Cou? Teach: correct. How’d you know? Person 1: *explains* Teach: Next one When she got to mouth, and asked “does anyone know what mouth is in French?” Suddenly a memory popped into my mind. From when I was 7, grocery shopping with my mom, and we got mouthwash, and it read “Rince-Bouche”. I shot my hand up and answered “Bouche”, when she asked how I knew it, I told her, and the class looked at me like I had 5 heads.
0:19 Autistic people often take things literally. Grandin is NOT being snarky here. She is acting in good faith. She was asked to read it, and then she silently read it. She really thought that was what she was supposed to do.
This is set in the sixties. As someone who is actually autistic, and went to school in the seventies and eighties, I can attest that they are not milking anything. This is how it went. There may be a single "nice" person in the room, but they aren't "nice enough " to say anything or confront the bullies.
@@xiphocostalI am 45 yrs old and HFA....was "Educated" in public schools in the 80's and even then there was ZERO understanding of neurodiversity. if you couldn't learn with the tools you were given you were simply ostracized by the educators. it doesn't matter if there is a "nice person" in the classroom....the point of the scene is to show that the classroom and the educators themselves ARE the roadblock.
Best actress ever!!!! Started following her after Homeland. Now I love her movies.

Thank you for sharing, im new to this channel.
Her classmates are lame
Id say that man has zero patience as he could cleary see she was having diffilculty reading--arrogant jerk.
You mean to imply there isn't a single nice human being sitting in that classroom? Milking scenes to make us FFEEELL is cheap.
Makes me so sad
