Product Details

Teach the students you work with to comprehend what they are reading with this excellent resource developed by Joseph Porter M.A. Ed., an autism specialist. This curriculum is very well structured and designed to build upon the strengths we generally see in students with ASD. It starts at a low cognitive level in order to develop a work pattern and sense of competence. Ready to use worksheets and easy to use lesson plans will help you create a predictable routine that encourages learning.  You will appreciate using this curriculum that is research and evidence based.  It is designed to be taught with groups of children who have expressive and receptive language challenges.  

This book features nine levels of reading that are based on animal themes.  A sample schedule is provided to demonstrate how to effectively progress through each level with its lessons and variations.  Each lesson has a group instruction time, along with question and answer worksheets for individual practice that are designed to teach observation, conversation, and writing skills. Each worksheet has four variations that build on each other. A robust appendix with numerous suggestions and resources for complementary activities for each animal theme will help you supplement your lessons with art projects, music, books, and videos.

Teacher Data-Collection Sheets and assessment forms will help you track student’s progress as they reach their IEP goals. This book has an accompanying website so you can download PDFs of every worksheet, lesson plan, visual aid, and assessment form.
