Riassunto

Successful Inclusion for Students with Autism gives teachers in both special and general education as well as administrators the information they need to start and maintain an effective inclusion program for children with autism spectrum disorders. The book offers step-by-step guidance for creating successful inclusion programs and includes specific information on key topics such as educator roles and responsibilities, ongoing program assessment, and evaluating student progress. De Boer offers specific advice for designing an appropriate inclusive education program, outlines legal guidelines for placement, and provides valuable teaching tips on a wide variety of topics including behavior management, boosting social and communication skills, and more.

The book also offers a wealth of helpful forms, checklists, and handouts that will assist with implementing the inclusion program and ensure that all involved—educators, administrators, parents, and students—have the information necessary to make the program successful.

A valuable resource for teachers and administrators working with children with ASD, and a must–read for those aspiring to become teachers.

This book is one of the best I ve seen for supporting students with autism in an inclusive environment. A must–have for school teams developing programs for students with autism to be successful. Teachers should keep the checklists and forms in Chapter 7 readily available when preparing for that new student to be in an inclusive classroom.
