Do San Bernardino City Unified School District Special Education Teachers Have Knowledge Of The Social Stories Teaching Strategy For Students With Autism?, Heather Dana Lozano

Theses Digitization Project

This project was done by a special education teacher of the severely handicapped. The goal of this project is to promote a teaching strategy called Social Stories which combine the written word with various scenarios for the autistic individual. Preliminary findings of teachers who are using Social Stories show great promise for some autistic individuals who function at a variety of levels. Unfortunately, Social Stories seems to be neglected as a teaching strategy and what can be done to change so that more teachers are aware of it and using it?

Increasing Emergent Literacy Skills In Children With Autism, Julie Lynnette Lafleur

Theses Digitization Project

Examines and rationalizes the instructional strategies used to teach young children with autism early literacy skills using a balanced, multilevel approach to reading. Explores the five domains of reading in a way that brings light to the areas of reading deficits in young children diagnosed with autism. Additionally, attempts to bring the concept of best reading practices to the attention of educators who serve children with autism. The project provides a handbook of literacy activities geared towards children with autism and other developmental disabilities.
