Practical Strategies for a Positive School Experience

Autism Parenting: Practical Strategies for a Positive School Experience empowers parents, caregivers, and family members of children, with or without an Autism Spectrum Disorder, to positively impact their child's educational experience. This comprehensive guide pinpoints what areas-academically, emotionally, and/or socially- a child may struggle with and provides practical strategies for them to arrive at school ready, willing, and available for learning. Just imagine a future when your child goes to school willingly and gets there on time- When he says he likes his teacher, feels safe, has friends and enjoys learning- A time when she comes home from school with a smile on her face because she has had another good day! This handy guide will help you create this new reality - one that minimizes your child's school related anxieties and increases his or her social competence. Where morning routines and homework time are stress-free and you approach special education meetings with confidence and a smile. The interactive checklists at the end of most chapters are designed to help parents chart a course towards a more positive school experience. These printable documents keep parents focused and guide them to implement the strategies mentioned throughout the book. Start now to create a more autism-friendly, sensory-friendly environment for your child - at home and at school - that will enhance healthy, overall development.
