Calling All Teachers: If you're only going to buy one book to help you work with kids on the Autism Spectrum, this is the one to buy! It will change the way you think about kids on the spectrum and help you, step-by-step to reach each one of these unique individuals and help them to learn their way. Instead of looking at autism in a deficit mode, you will learn to identify and embrace the differences these kids bring to the classroom. In addition to providing current and positive information, this book presents many practical examples and tips to use today in your inclusive classroom.I bought this book to help me, as a teacher, help my students. It is the best, along with any of the other Paula Kluth books. After reading this book, she will become your new best hero.
This is the best book written for individuals who either live with or teach children with autism. Kluth is empathetic, realistic, and supportive in her approach to teaching and working with children with disabilities. Many books are written as 'us' and 'them', but Kluth is able to overcome the misconceptions and misunderstandings of the abilities of children with differences. If you are a teacher - buy this book, and read it! If you are a parent - buy this book, and read it and then give it to your child's teacher!
Great for introducing new teachers to teaching children with Autism or as a professional development tool to expand current teachers thinking in the field. I found the strategies helpful and I liked some of the planning tools that are included. I think this is a great book to recommend to parents who want to learn what education should look like for their child with autism. It is so positive and uplifting.
I was required to purchase this book for a mandatory credential authorization class on autism. The state is requiring that all SPED teachers get 6 additional authorizations on our teaching credentials. I was just glad this book was affordable and relevant. It is an easy read and most is current for today's special education classroom. I do recommend it if you need a refresher on autism or ASD.
This book is very clearly written and has many applications in and out of the classroom. It covers innumerable topics in easy to understand language. The index is handy when looking for specific information or topics. I highly recommend it.You're Going to Love This Kid! 2e
As an inclusion teacher this book has provided numerous strategies that are working for my prekindergarten student. The positive tone if the book is both emcouraging and empowering. Also, The potential reasons for frustrations and upsets are well written and helpful for the parents as they learn to accept their child as a unique blessing in their lives.
An excellent reference book for teachers that are looking to begin or improve their collaborative inclusive work with grade level partners, school staff, students and families.
Great tips for differentiation, the book is geared towards working with kids with Autism but the book is also useful for any kind of differentiation you need to do.
