Inclusive Programming for Elementary Students with Autism – 2nd Edition

Appropriate social and communicative behaviour is a fundamental concern for parents, caregivers, and teachers of school children.

Children should be able to move in a safe and socially successful manner through their school years despite changing family culture, their activity level or degree of insight into the consequences of their behaviour. One would also hope that they develop a positive character and good values about human rights and social responsibility along the way. The most important long-term goal, however, is that they grow into content, kind, and successful fellow human beings.

The second edition of the award-winning Inclusive Programming for Elementary Students with Autism provides instructional resources and strategies for both teachers and parents of elementary students with autism.

This book illustrates more than 120 goals for developing positive personality features, adequate social behaviour and communicative competence. Ideas for long- and short-term goals have been selected from existing school programs, general education of values, as well as from parents and teachers.
