Thursday, May 21, 2015

8:30 am – 3:00 pm

with Paula Kluth, Ph.D.

In this interactive session, participants will learn practical ways of supporting students with autism spectrum labels & other disabilities within a general education classroom. Topics addressed include:

• defining (and redefining) autism
• listening to the voices of those with autism
• differentiating instruction
• creating more active and responsive lessons
• making the classroom comfortable
• and providing opportunities for communication and social skill development

The session will focus on the importance of pushing beyond access and participation and asking schools to challenge students and to understand each learner as complex and capable.
