Description

Embracing Autism in Preschool is a valuable book for preschool teachers, special educators, speech/language clinicians and parents. It is about inclusion in the classroom. It has the potential to change for the better the way community preschools everywhere approach young children on the autism spectrum. This wonderful book supports and informs preschool teachers in their quest to meet the needs of the children in their care. Research-based strategies in this book include teacher-tested ideas that support every young child’s learning. Strategies and sample activities in the text and appendices are easy to read and provide a much needed resource for early childhood educators. It underscores social interaction as the foundation for the development and use of language in natural settings. These interactions are crucial for further development of socialization, which is such a challenge for children on the autism spectrum. This book’s practicality and resources make it possible to truly feel, in Karen’s words, that “it is a privilege to have a child with autism in your class.
