Help make elementary school successful for your student with ASD!

Written by an educator and mother of two children with autism spectrum disorder, this resource is comprised of practical ideas for addressing the academic, behavior, sensory and social needs of elementary-aged children with high-functioning autism. Intended for teachers and parents, specific topics include organizational accommodations, curricular accommodations, developing social skills and making friends, and the importance of home-school communication.

Asperger Syndrome and the Elementary School Experience features evidence-based practices that can be used in inclusive settings by general and special educators, speech-language pathologists, psychologists, and occupational therapists. Forms, checklists, and other visuals make these helpful ideas easy to implement.
