Everyday Classroom Strategies and Practices for Supporting Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders helps to demystify the processes needed to help these students succeed and gives teachers the supports to plan appropriately for them. From the authors of the innovative ASD Nest Model, this is a practical approach to working with students with autism spectrum disorders.
Adopted by several schools and districts, this timely resource clearly communicates how to create a classroom in which every learner succeeds with specific and easy-to-implement strategies for students who require minimal supports as well as those who require more intensive interventions.
In compliance with current trends in education, it incorporates evidence-based practices, positive behaviour supports, and uses Response to Intervention (RTI).
"This is a book of incredible scope. A must-read for anyone who works with children on the autism spectrum, it provides clear practical models that will service as a resource for administrators, teachers and parents. indeed the strategies and practices described in the book have been implemented in PS 112's ASD Nest Program and have proven to support students with ASD and ensure their success."
