The book helps educators instruct youth on conversing with others, displaying appropriate body language, managing anxiety, initiating and participating in get-togethers, and more. The book is filled with helpful information on ASD to aid teachers who have received little training on the topic. Extremely practical, the book includes lesson plans, checklists, and sidebars with helpful advice.Based on UCLA's acclaimed PEERS program, the only evidence-based approach to teaching social skills to adolescents with ASDContains best practices for working with parents, which is the key to helping kids learn social skillsThe authors discuss the pros and cons of teaching students with ASD in educational settings like full inclusion (good for academics but bad for social skills) and pull-out special day classes (where the reverse is true)Provides a much-needed book for teachers at all levels for helping students develop the skills they need to be successful.
