The prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is growing tremendously in early childhood classrooms. To support students with ASD, educators can draw on strategies that incorporate best practices as well as recognize individual strengths and needs. Practical Strategies for Supporting Young Learners with Autism Spectrum Disorder showcases the diverse capabilities of students with ASD and prepares early childhood educators to work effectively with students ages 3-5 with pervasive developmental disorders (PDD). Descriptive examples and interactive activities guide teachers to understand how these disorders affect student progress and how educators can tap into student potential. Each chapter offers several strategies to address specific academic, social, and behavioral needs common to many young children with ASD. The strategies are easy to follow and accompanied by teacher tips, sample resources, and relevant student goals.

Betty Eaves –
Helping the Autistic Child
There are so many wonderful books for teachers today. Dr. Shelton tackles the area of autism, which is an area that so many parents and teachers have little knowledge. Dr. Shelton goes in depth with practical and common sense approaches, based on years of experience and research. She gives concrete ideas for activities and useful ways to implement learning geared to young children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. She stresses social skills and behavior should be addressed along with academic learning, within the framework of teaching the whole child. Everything in her book works equally well with children that are not autistic. It seems that she highlights the importance of reaching the child with asd in a systematic and structured manner. Reading between the lines, Dr. Shelton’s professional presentation comes from a place of love for children and for those that teach them. If you need more knowledge about helping an autistic child, you will find it here.
