This easy-to-use book is designed to help children with ASD find
friends, become better communicators, increase their flexibility,
and lead lives that are less stressful. Skills are presented in the
form of cartoons, scripts and role play - all evidence-based
practices - that address a wide range of developmental levels. The
Cartoon & Script Curriculum breaks down complex behaviors into
manageable steps and provides methods to help children and youth
generalize skills across settings and people. The result:
individuals on the spectrum become more effective in managing
everyday life!
During the first years in school children need to learn reading,
writing and arithmetic, but it seems equally important to develop
social and communicative skills and good values. While there are
plenty of teaching programs on the "Three Rs" it is not easy to
find curricula for social behavior and character development. This
workbook provides a clear teaching sequence on eight long-term
objectives, such as being reliable, authentic, empathetic,
self-controlled and a good team player. In 130 cartons daily
problem situations are pictured and possible solutions are
presented. While making good value choices children learn at the
same time to become competent communicators. Typical as well as
special needs students are encouraged to pro-social behaviors which
are a solid foundation for school, social and future professional
success.
Combining their years of experience working with individuals on the
autism spectrum, both here and around the world, authors Vera
Bernard-Opitz and Anne Haussler bring teachers and other
professionals practical ideas and teaching methods for offering
visual supports to students with autism spectrum disorders and
other visual learners. With hundreds of colourful illustrations and
step-by-step directions, this book lays the foundation for how to
structure teaching environments, as well as offers countless
examples of activities for students, ranging from basic skills, to
reading and math, to social behaviour.
