SLP 117: Top Tips for Teaching Children with Autism in The Early Years Jun 28, 2021

Show notes

Discussed in this episode

When working with any child with ASD it is critically important that the programme implemented is realistic, both for the child and for the family.

By realistic I mean setting everyone up for (achievable) success and that everyone across all environments has the time to implement it.

I believe the best way to create a realistic programme is to only address one or two ideas at any one time. I recommend in the early years you always have visuals of the goals you are working on in a prominent place (e.g. fridge or preschool office) so ALL people engaging with the child know the week's two goals.

Over the years I have found by displaying the goals ensures consistency and everyone creating opportunities to reinforce the goal. As children with autism spectrum disorders are highly individual, not all strategies may work with every child.

If you find this to be the case, remember that it is worth revisiting an old strategy in the future as it may work then. Most children respond best to a range of strategies.

In this podcast I have chosen two very important skills, 'Pointing' and 'Asking for Help,' to teach children as examples of two goals you could work on at the same time. In the podcast I also mention Play Schedules and how to use them. Jump here for two free examples you can download!

This book is the one I mentioned during the podcast called The Early Years: The Foundation for All Learning (only available in hard copy to Australian residents)

SLP 116: Temple Grandin One of Time Magazine's Most Influential people in the World Shares her Insights into Sensory, Social and Behaviour. Jun 14, 2021

Show notes

Discussed in this episode

In this podcast, I take inspiration from my exclusive interview from Temple Grandin – one of Times Magazine's most influential people in the world – and share her insights on sensory processing, social skills and behaviour. I discuss the amgdala and it's impacts on behaviour and sensory processing. Many people with autism – including Temple Grandin – have an enlarged amygdala, causing an increased emotional response to stimuli. Sensory tools can be a huge help – jump here for more information.

Here is a link to my book Practical Sensory programmes that I mention during the podcast.

SLP 115: What you can Learn from Lived Experiences of Autism and ADHD Jun 07, 2021

Show notes

Discussed in this episode

When I first started working in Special Education 30 years ago I always sought out Personal Accounts of people with autism, as I found it so insightful and helped me understand the children I worked with. Lived experiences allow a valuable and genuine perspective that I find very eye-opening.

There are lots of great ways to access information on lived experiences. Here are some of my suggestions.

SLP 114: Making Friends and Being One May 24, 2021

Show notes

Discussed in this episode

One of the biggest myths about children with ASD is they all like being on their own. Children with ASD often desperately want friends, and in fact worrying about friends can cause them anxiety. Many children show this stress by becoming more withdrawn, which of course makes the situation worse.

This episode talks about ideas for teaching at school and home.

SLP 113: How to help kids who struggle with handwriting May 17, 2021

Show notes

Discussed in this episode

Many children on the specturm suffer from dysgraphia (see Podcast Episode 86 for more information). The Kids' Guide to Getting Your Words on Paper by Lauren Brukner is an excellent resource that acts as a self-help guide to writing for kids. I would absolutely use this book with my whole class as it has great reminders of how to help students with their writing.

SLP 112: De-escalation Strategies to use before, during and after a meltdown May 10, 2021

Show notes

Discussed in this episode

Recognising and managing meltdowns / shutdowns is vital to support people with an ASD. Every child with an ASD will experience very individual symptoms that are unique to them. Not all individuals with an ASD will experience a "meltdown" and instead may "shut down". It is very important you are familiar with each child's triggers and responses. Use the student profile on page 31 of The Ultimate Guide to School and Home to record the information so everyone is aware of triggers and signs of meltdowns.

Check out Podcast Episode 70 on Understanding Meltdowns with Jed Baker for more information!
