Making Visual Supports Work in the Home and Community: Strategies for Individuals with Autism and Asperger Syndrome / Jennifer L. Savner, Brenda Smith Myles. Shawnee Mission, Kan. : Autism Asperger Pub., 2000. ii, 33 p. : ill. ; 28 cm. Children with autism find visual timetables and instructions extremely helpful: a visual support is like having a light bulb go on in their head! From a guide to hand washing to making popcorn, this richly illustrated book provides parents, carers and teachers with all the information they need to make effective visual supports using a variety of materials – many of them commonly found around the home. The book contains step-by-step directions and pictures to help create visual supports that can be geared to the individual child and family across many settings. The book’s dozens of simple, practical ideas can be immediately added to anyone’s “bag of tricks” to help their child navigate more easily through both home and community. This manual provides practical ideas for using visual supports for daily living with a child with Asperger Syndrome. 20010701. Autistic children Education. Special education Parent participation.
