Understanding Autism, disability and difference

(0)
This powerpoint guides users through a lesson to help young children understand that people have different needs and how it is right and fair to accommodate them. Ideal for exploring diversity, disability, autism and the paralympics. One of the main characters features Stephen Wiltshire (the human camera) as child. It would be a valuable activity to watch videos of him on youtube . This would help explore that we all have different strengths and weaknesses. This resource was developed by Spectrum Savvy to help build peer relationships and tolerance where autistic learners were being misunderstood in mainstream.

Season TEACCH Bundle - Independent Autism and SEND Activities

4 Resources
Save 25% with this Seasonal Bundle. Activities and tasks for your pupils with Autism! Includes early reading, writing and maths activities to help achieve those early targets and build on working independently! These are the individual resources included: Spring TEACCH Tasks £3 Summer TEACCH Tasks £3 Autumn TEACCH Tasks £3 Winter TEACCH Tasks £3 When using TEACCH tasks the task that is to be completed should be placed on the left hand side of the desk/workstation. The pupil then completes this task and places it on the right when completed. Having a clear visual for the pupil to identify where the finished tasks go is preferable. This clear structure allows the pupils to focus on the task they are completing and not be distracted by the work process. It is important to remember that when completing these tasks it is also about creating and building independence as well as success at the task, this is why the consistent work approach (working from left to right is so important) When using these tasks I would recommend using them for at least 4-6 weeks. For some children it may take up to a term for them to master the skill and be able to complete this independently.

Executive Function for ADHD and Autism but useful for all.

(0)
Executive function is the brain’s ability to manage tasks effectively. I made this resource to create an executive function display in my classroom. This supports all of the pupils in my class but was designed to help my neurodivergent pupils specifically. My pupils complete the assessment rubrics so they know what their strengths are and what they need to work on. I find it useful to refer back to with the children. Pupil’s have free access to the display, they can help themselves to a strategy whenever they feel they need to. I have provided timers, blank timetables, to do lists, emotion wheels, calming down strategies etc… and the pupils just help themselves. I have included a couple of photos of my display as an idea of how you can use this resource. Please feel free to use it in any way you find useful. It is based on this book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Smart-but-Scattered-Revolutionary-Executive/dp/1593854455/ref=asc_df_1593854455/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310977458808&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=764855614215065740&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1006688&hvtargid=pla-406163957193&psc=1&mcid=48400fb402983448846c1ae51f9a6ab9&th=1&psc=1 If you find this resource useful, please leave a review.

This is a ppt containing information on 25 well known people who are known to have a diagnosis/thought to have some traits of ASD. I put it together for Autism awareness week. I encouraged teachers to show one at the start of each lesson and have a short discussion with their class using the quotes on each slide. You could use it to promote inference skills by asking key questions rather then reading out the ppt to them. Such as- What information do we know already about this person? What does the slide tell us? What characteristics of Autism does it tell us this person has? What do you think of this quote? What do you think the person was trying to say? Can also be used as a display around the school.
