This presentation is appropriate for educators, therapists, caregivers and parents of children/teens with ASD.

Participants will learn practical ways of supporting students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and other significant disabilities. Topics addressed include defining ASD, differentiating instruction in the diverse classroom, encouraging literacy development, making the classroom comfortable for all learners, and supporting behaviors and bodies of students with a range of needs.
