Parents all over the world are suddenly homeschooling. Are you one of
them? If you have children on the autism spectrum, the prospect may seem
even more daunting.
Homeschooling, Autism Style: Reset for Success will give you what
you need to step up. You'll plan out the best way for your kids to learn
at home, according to their own strengths and rhythms, find varied and
fun activities to create teachable moments, and integrate learning into
everyday life. You'll also meet three fictional characters you may
recognize from your own family: Distractible Dory, Hyper-focused
Hermione, and Creative Calvin. Learn how personalizing a homeschooling
experience works for each of them.
Homeschooling, Autism Style: Reset for Success is written by a
mother-daughter team. Wendela is an autism consultant, author, and
speaker. Siobhan, also a writer, grew up in an autism-majority family
and successfully homeschooled herself for several years. Siobhan's
Strategies appear throughout the book.
Although the book was written primarily for homeschooling families with
children on the autism spectrum, the tips and tools are equally
effective for your kids with ADHD, OCD, sensory integration or
processing problems, learning difficulties, and even for
typically-developing children. Whoever you are, and wherever you are on
your homeschooling journey, you'll find something here for your family.
