Whats the biggest challenge facing teachers today? Behavior. And which students present the most baffling and unique behavior problems? Our awesome kids on the autism spectrum. We love them, but it can be difficult to understand and deal with their challenging behaviors. But behavior analysts arent in the classroom teachers are. And most teachers cant call a behavior analyst every time a behavior problem crops up. Even when they do call in a behavior analyst, they might not understand all that talk about the discriminative stimulus and the conditioned reinforcer. Its all so dry and confusing. Teachers dont have time to wade through all that jargon, theyre too busy teaching. So whats a teacher to do when a student throws a chair, or bites her hand, or refuses to work? Its up to teachers to figure out solutions before the behavior gets worse. They need help. The ABCs of Autism in the Classroom: Setting the Stage for Success was written by a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst who was also a teacher for many years, as well as an autism mom. Here you will find evidence-based, research-supported behavioral tools presented in teacher-friendly language. Youll meet a virtual village of students with problem behaviors you might find in your own classroom. Youll also read stories shared by kids and adults on the autism spectrum, in their own words.
