This review is from: Inclusive Programming For Elementary Students with Autism (Paperback)
Autism is rapidly growing across the US. Odds are if you don't have an autistic child in your class, you will soon. If you buy one book about autism this is the one to help you - the educator - integrate autistic children in your classroom without changing everything you do! The book is an easy read with practical advice for tomorrows school day. Take the time to read this important book. And special thanks from a mom of an autistic boy! (I buy this book for everyone of Jeff's teachers!)
