12 Top Tips to Set Up for Success in 2017 (plus a Bonus)

12 Quick TipsForSchool

  1. Understand their difference (strengths and challenges), accept their different way of thinking, learning, socialising, etc .(Great reference to understanding ASD is Dr Tony Attwood’s books).

  2. Break it down. Break tasks down into smaller parts and give them each step sequentially. If possible, give them a checklist to mark off as they do each step. Do NOT expect the children to multitask! Allow them extra time to get it done, but let them finish! It is important to finish one task before going to another.
  3. Slow it down. Be aware of communication difficulties. Allow time to process verbal information, use visuals, and don’t overload them with verbal information.
  4. Use their special interests to motivate and engage – their strengths are motivated by their interest.
  5. Show them what is expected and what is happening, then they have less need to fight for control (i.e. schedules, routines, timers).
  6. Be careful how you use words, their literalness can mean they misunderstand you. Avoid words like ‘could’, ‘would’, ‘can’ as they perceive them as a choice. e.g. “Can you start work” can be seen as a choice.
