UNDERSTANDING AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERS

INSTRUCTOR(S): Tara Tuchel, Hudson School District
GRADE LEVEL: Pre K-5
 

Increasing numbers of children with autism spectrum disorders are found in today's classrooms.  As a result, there is an urgent need for school professionals to better understand autism and its implications in schools and society as a whole.  Participants in this class will gain the knowledge needed to become active and informed team members and advocates for students with autism spectrum disorders and will learn effective strategies to enhance communication, socialization and learning when teaching these children.  This is a valuable opportunity for teachers, special educators, speech pathologists, counselors, classroom aides and school psychologists.
