Christy Magnusen

Pbk | 128pp | 9781843107477 | 15/07/2005A$32.99 | NZ$39.99 | Jessica Kingsley Publishing

Based on twenty-five years of teaching and working with children who have Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs), Christy L. Magnusen contends that it is those teachers who can blend the 'science' of education methodology with the 'art' of teaching who are best able to reach these children. Examining both these aspects of teaching, she takes a fresh look at established and more recent teaching methods such as structuring spaces, emphasising language and planning strategies for transition and generalization, and then explores the art of implementation: why, when and how these techniques should be applied.

People with severe autism experience the sensory information they receive from the world completely differently to those not on the spectrum. They feel cut off, overwhelmed and retreat into a world of their own. Their behaviour can become very distressed. This handbook shows how we can engage with people who are non-verbal or semi-verbal and sometimes even those who have speech but lose the power to process this when they are in crisis. We can help them to make sense of the world.

This book demonstrates how to apply the Verbal Behavior (VB) approach, an intervention used in conjunction with the Lovaas Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), with children with autism.

Using this approach allows parents and professionals to build bridges by identifying the particular skills a child already has and working to improve them.
