Come join us Tuesday as we welcome Dr. Paula Kluth, author of "You're Going to Love This Kid!", as she presents the topic of inclusion for individuals with autism and other disabilities. Working interactively, you will learn to differentiate your instruction in the diverse classroom, make the classroom comfortable for all learners and support behaviors and bodies of students with a range of needs. Dr. Kluth's last afternoon session will include "Beyond Sight Words: Supporting the Literacy Students with Autism."
Wednesday's speaker is nationally recognized Maria Bird-West Wheeler, author of "Treasure Chest of Behavioral Strategies for Individuals with Autism" and "Toilet Training for Individuals with Autism and Related Disorders." Back by popular demand, Maria will present how the characteristics of ASD impact behavior and can foster communication breakdowns and feelings of being overwhelmed. Maria will also teach you how to address the social and sensory needs of an individual. Topics include: Effective behavior interventions, visual supports for maximizing communication and minimizing confusion, along with preventing and dealing with shutdowns and meltdowns.
