How to Support and Teach Children on the Autism Spectrum

This is an excellent book for anyone working with children with ASD. The book covers relevant terminology, safety and protection and ways to support communication, play and behaviour. There are useful resources for behaviour, a quality of education checklist, and an interest checklist. It also discusses different areas of play and how to support families.

Well written and informative book

Clear and concise information delivered in an easy to read way. A good book if you are working in a supporting role with a child on the Autistic Spectrum.

This book is fantastic. Really helps the reader to understand what asd pupils may need in order for them to receive good support and actually take in what they are being taught.

I found this book very informative.

I like this book because it tells you that children who are on the autism spectrum are children first. It says that the difficulties that these children have in an in social understanding, communication and play / imagination. Then it tells you how to do something about it. It has a few funny stories to tell and some nice cheerful drawings.

Probably should have realised from the cover that this was for teaching aimed at younger children. It does say so at the end of the forward but would be better of it highlighted on the cover. Anyway, read it and picked out some useful tips that will work for older children too.

Very useful book for all education practitioners (as are all in the series). Concise but full of useful advice, strategies and materials.
