Overview

This workshop will share a toolbox of interventions and supports that help autistic students meet their limitless potential. Following the structure of the Transition Checklist, attendees will learn how to do the following: (a) develop a plan that easily communicates what the student needs for success; (b) establish a classroom structure that minimizes student meltdowns; (c) teach skills that are often not taught, but are essential to life success; and (d) transition autistic students from grade to grade, ensuring that future teachers understand the student and how they are to be supported. The strategies Brenda will share will be applicable for students in elementary through high school, in special education and general education, with a range of abilities.

At the end of session, attendees will be able to:

• Describe strategies that complement the autistic neurology.

• Discuss interventions that provide structure and reduce the potential for behavior challenges.

• Complete an easy-to-use method of keeping track of the interventions and supports that each student needs.
