Lynn McClannahan, Patricia Krantz

This is the second edition of the popular guide to increasing independence for people with autism. Use activity schedules with children and adults to organize their dailly routines and improve functioning. Teaching Independent Behaviour.
For Parents. Includes prerequisite skills to teach, manual guidance, fading, rewards, graphing data and social skills and trouble shooting
117 Pages Like the bestselling first edition, this new edition of Activity Schedules will show thousands of parents and service providers how to use this teaching tool to help children and adults successfully engage in self-directed and purposeful activities. Activity schedules are a set of pictures or words that cue a child to follow a sequence of steps. Based on ABA methods, learners are taught using a system of graduated guidance physical prompts systematically faded as performance increases. Once the individual has mastered their use, he or she can independently follow a schedule to engage in activities at home, at school, and during leisure time. For example, activity schedules can cue an individual to prepare food with minimal assistance, interact with classmates, and complete a puzzle. Based on over 20 years of research the authors have conducted at the Princeton Child Development Institute, the second edition discusses the latest research that points to positive outcomes from using activity schedules, including better self management, decreased problem behaviors, and skill generalization, among other findings. The new edition includes How to use activity schedules to organize all aspects of a persons daily activities, and increase engagement, task completion, making appropriate choices, and sequencing activities An expanded section on the use of activity schedules by adults, describing how they are used at home and in the workplace and via iPods and Blackberries How to use activity schedules to promote social interaction and to teach children to point to and show objects to others in order to share a social experience Detailed instructions and examples help parents prepare their childs first schedule, then progress to more varied and sophisticated schedules, leading to greater independence

Stephen R. Anderson

Learning self-help skills--eating, dressing, toileting, and personal hygiene--can be challenging for people with autism, but is essential for independence. Self-Help Skills for People with Autism thoroughly describes a systematic approach that parents (and educators) can use to teach basic self-care to children, ages 24 months to early teens, and even older individuals. With an encouraging tone, the authors--behavior analysts and psychologists--emphasize that it's worthwhile to devote the extra time and effort now to teach skills rather than have your child be dependent on others.
