Addressing Challenging Behavior of Children with High-Funcioning
Autism/Asperger Syndrome in the Classroom
By Rebecca A Moyes
$23.95 $18.00

How do teachers and parents of children with autism address a child's problem behavior in school? How do we discover the reasons for these behaviors and design intervention plans that really work? This book provides possible explanations for some of the behaviors children with autism may exhibit, so that teachers and parents can design positive behavior support plans that are individualized and truly effective. Teachers learn how to create environmental supports for different kinds of behavior problems and to incorporate specific teaching strategies to address various target areas of development. Students with autism learn the new skills they might be lacking, so that they will no longer need to use challenging behaviors as a way of delling with their deficits. If you are a parent of a child whose behaviors are inappropriate in school or a teacher who has such a student in the classroom, this is the book for you!
