Choosing a school for a child with special needs

Whether the child has autism, dyslexia or any other special educational, emotional or behavioural difficulty, this book will help you find the school that suits the child best. From drawing up a list of possibilities and setting up a school visit, to asking the right questions and recording your opinions in order to make an informed decision, [this book] will guide you through this complex and stressful process with confidence and ease." - BOOK JACKET

Developing differently : a guide for parents of young children with global developmental delay, intellectual disability, or autism / Dr. Joshua Muggleton ; foreword by Tony Attwood.
Description: - 288 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm
- Parenting isn't easy, and parenting a child with a Global Developmental Delay, Intellectual Disability, or Autism can be challenging. However, a lot of parenting strategies are straightforward once you get your head around them. With the right knowledge, environment, interactions, responses and understanding, you can help reduce your child's anxiety, build their confidence, and help them develop learning and communication skills. Based on his work as a Clinical Psychologist working with children developing differently, Dr Joshua Muggleton provides a comprehensive, step-by-step parenting plan that will support you to embed good practice at home from day one. The book outlines how to provide the right environment for your child to learn and grow, how to model and encourage new skills, how to organise routines, and how to make these strategies work in family life. By getting things right for your child early on, you can help prevent emotional and behavioural challenges before they arise, and will be better able to understand and support your child when they do. These strategies are designed to work across all neurodevelopmental conditions, and take into account co-occurring conditions such as ADHD, meaning none of the advice in the book requires your child to have a specific diagnosis. It also includes downloadable examples of charts, how-to guides for creating visual resources tailored to your child's individual needs, and downloadable chapters on sleep and siblings.

Feeding your child with autism : a family-centered guide to meeting the challenges Series: Topics in Autism
Description: - x, 145 p. : ill. ; 22 cm.
- "Feeding disorders challenge many children with autism, leading to tantrums, food aversions or refusal, or rituals. These behaviors are part of larger autism symptoms such as escape and avoidance tendencies, oral-motor deficits, and sensory issues. Left unchecked, they can threaten an individual's health and functioning, and overwhelm family life. "Feeding Your Child with Autism" thoroughly discusses feeding disorders in children and explains the types of supports families can use at home, as well as what professional help they should consider. The authors, experts in feeding issues and disorders, stress that regardless of the type of behavior exhibited, it's important to identify the underlying root cause and tailor a treatment plan using ABA methods." - PUBLISHER'S WEBSITE

How to stop your words from bumping into someone else' s and other really useful social stories : a guide for young children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Description: - 26 leaves : illustrated ; 30 cm
- "Teaching communication skills to children on the autism spectrum can sometimes be a daunting and time consuming task. Much depends on the cognitive ability and the degree of severity of the deficit in the child. Because of the impairments it is often necessary to teach fundamental skills, as well as the reasons for interaction with others. The intuitive skills that are normally inherent within individuals in the non-autistic population are not necessarily present in those with autism spectrum disorder, for example, conversation is based on turn taking and often this basic skill needs to be taught first." - INTRODUCTION

Edition: 2nd ed - "The completely updated and expanded new edition of this well-established text incorporates DSM-5 changes as well as other new developments.

A completely revised chapter on the autism spectrum by Tony Attwood explains not only new understanding in the field, but the new diagnostic criteria, and the anticipated usage of the term 'Asperger's Syndrome'. Dr. Kutscher provides accessible information on causes, symptoms, interactions with other conditions, and treatments. He presents effective behavioral strategies for responding to children who display traits of these disorders - whether at home, at school, or in other settings - along with case vignettes and practical tips. Finally, a chapter on the role of medications summarizes current knowledge." - PUBLISHER'S WEBSITE
