Minischedules are useful in targeting certain events or tasks in the daily schedule where a child has difficulty. It breaks a larger task down into smaller steps which are easier for a child to handle.
If Nathan does well following his schedule during the rest of the day, but at bedtime he often forgets parts of his routine, a minischedule like the one to the right might be a good solution. It breaks down the larger task of getting ready for bed into simple steps, which are easier for him to follow. Another reason for using the minischedule is if different people put him to bed. Minischedules could be used for: • Going to the bathroom • Morning routine • Getting ready for school • Getting ready to eatBack to Visual Supports. Visual_supports. Autistic Children and Visual Cues. Learning about autistic children and visual cues can help parents figure out ways to communicate with their children. Many children with autism respond better to visual prompts than they do to verbal instruction at home and in classrooms. Find out more about how children with autism respond to visual cues and how to use available visual supports to help your child.
Autistic Children and Visual Cues Overview Children with autism often have significant communication, speech and language difficulties that can make home life, social activities and school challenging. Theories About Why It Works It is not known why children with autism learn and communicate better visually. Another theory suggests that there may be impairments in the area of the brain that processes language and speech. Visual Supports for Communication and Education Visual supports for communication involve providing language for autistic children with limited to no speech.
Helping Your Child with Visual Cues Post a comment. Inclusion (Special Educational Needs and Gifted and Talented Pupils) - Individual Education Plans (IEPs) In Spring 2004 the 'IEPs into Action' project group published new additional guidance for primary schools on: how to incorporate IEPs into planningpupil and parental involvement in IEPsusing ICT to improve the management of the IEP processmonitoring pupil progress through IEPsmonitoring whole school provision for SEN through IEPsthe storage and distribution of IEPs Schools are invited to join the project at any time.
You will be asked to audit current practice in your own schools to identify good practice and points for action in line with this new LEA guidance. Support for schools will be available from the Curriculum Project Manager. Schools that have identified IEPs as a focus for development are particularly welcome. Members of the project group will report on progress at termly meetings.

There is a range of reasons why children with an ASD have difficulties with behaviour. The world can be a confusing, isolating and daunting place for your child and it is their fundamental difficulties with communication and social interaction that are often the root cause of difficult behaviour. There are some other possible reasons, too.
We look at all these reasons below, although this list is not exhaustive. It's important to say that your child's behaviour is not caused by bad parenting and is not your fault. It may seem as though your child's difficult behaviour is only ever directed at you - especially if it tends to happen at home, not at school. Many parents contact us to ask about their child's behaviour and we have answered some of the most common questions on our website. Communication Children with an ASD can experience a number of difficulties with communication: Social situations Unstructured time Sensory processing difficulties. Children on the autistic spectrum: Guidelines for mainstream practice. Children on the autistic spectrum: Guidelines for mainstream practice With the momentum for (mainstream) inclusion of children with special educational needs and the growing realisation that it may not always be in the best interests of children with autism or Asperger syndrome to be grouped together in classes, it is likely that many children at the higher functioning and more verbal end of the continuum of need, who might previously have attended specialist schools, will now be educated in their local, mainstream schools.
These notes are intended to provide co-ordinators, class teachers, and classroom assistants with information concerning the nature of autism, and how autism and Asperger syndrome are compared and contrasted; estimated incidence, and theories of causation; methods of identification; the particular behavioural, cognitive and social profiles of children with autistic spectrum disorders; and strategies for management in class.

I am a teacher with Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect) and I teach autistic children in a 'satellite' class. Satellite classes are attached to mainstream, private or public schools. I teach in a Catholic primary school which has three Aspect classes. Students are taught in their satellite class as well as attending some mainstream classes.Teacher aides support the student's integration into the mainstream classes. Some of our students achieve a level of competency that enables them to progress to mainstream school following a period of teaching in a satellite class. In my class I have six students (all boys), ranging from kindergarten to grade two. All students have difficulty with communication and social skills. My work with the autistic students is based on the premise 'all behaviour is communication'. My students have individual daily timetables. My class then separates into two groups.
