Can you assist me with creating a biblical lesson with 8 students and 3 of them are autistic. Here are some example characteristics of the 3 students with ASD:

Joni Joni is a non-verbal student with ASD who has excellent receptive abilities but low expressive communication. She works with PECS and chooses the answer to comprehensions questions by choosing between no more than three icons or pictures. Joni will need help with fine motor skills but like drawing and painting even though she may need assistance. Joni likes puzzles and does better with manipulatives for math. Joni likes being around people but because of her non-verbal status, her peers and sometimes adults seem to ignore her. Her reading comprehension goal is: Joni will answer comprehension questions correctly in three out of five trials by choosing the correct answer from a group of three pictures. Joni usually completes writing assignments with a picture system. Richard Richard is a student with ASD who is also gifted and has a special interest in ancient history. Richard has trouble conversing with his peers and could benefit from structured social time with his peers. Richard excels in his academics however he may struggle with questions about the point of view of a character and is not good with idioms or sarcasm. Richard understands the literal meaning of events in a text, but he has difficulty interpreting events of making inferences. Richard sometimes has difficulty transitioning from a favored activity and may need assistance in the form of a five-minute warning, visual timeclock, or first/then visual. Deshawn Deshawn is verbal, reads below grade level, and can complete simple comprehension questions for writing assignments however because of his fine motor skill issues Deshawn types his assignments on a laptop. Deshawn needs step-by-step instructions with visuals for any independent work and needs concrete manipulatives for math. Deshawn sometimes has outbursts that can include throwing furniture. Deshawn does not socialize well with his peers, he usually ignores them. Deshawn needs to work on understanding his emotions via the 5-point scale system so he will know when he needs to take a break.

I would like some ideas for small group, whole group and independent.
