Sensory Assessment and Intervention Programme (CD-ROM, New Ed)

This resource highlights the impact that sensory difficulties have for children with autism and illustrates the barriers they create for the child in their learning and functioning in everyday situations. With the increase in children being diagnosed with autism and the majority of these children educated in a mainstream setting, this easy to use resource is invaluable in helping practitioners working with children with autism to identify the possible triggers for behaviours that challenge and enable them to create an intervention programme to support the child. The resource is also suitable for other children who have sensory difficulties. Included on the CD is a printable handbook which details: background to development of the assessment; autism and its impact on the child; sensory issues and autism; using the CD and analysing how sensory difficulties are affecting the child; developing an intervention programme; and evaluating the intervention and way forward. It an includes assessment CD with booklet. It is suitable for ages: 2-12 years.
