|
A hands-on, how-to program featuring Karen Sewell, Autism Society of America's "teacher of the year". The Breakthroughs book provides numerous, very specific lesson plan reproducibles in the following areas: fine motor, cognitive/readiness and reading, cognitive/academic math skills, communication/language development, social/adaptive skills, self-help skills, and home-living/vocational skills. Lessons are appropriate for children in preschool and up. Many of the activities can be adapted for younger children. • Each activity describes a specific objective, such as "holds a pencil or crayon and makes a mark on paper", "points to named objects and pictures", "imitates gestures," etc. Then, a procedure is described in detail on how to achieve the objective, with suggestions on how to extend the task and possible variations. • Additional chapters include: On the job training, Where to begin, Getting the classroom ready, Materials and equipment, Moving from the evaluation to the IEP, Designing a functional lesson plan, and Tips for teaching students with autism. The book also includes an exhaustive listing of essential resources. • Written by Karen Sewell. Book: Spiralbound, 243 Pages, 1998. |
