How to Develop And Implement Visual Supports

From the Introduction of this 61 page book: "Visual schedules and other visual supports are essential components of programs for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Visual supports can be used to provide information, to teach self-help skills, to teach independent work skills, to help students understand expectations, and many other ways. Additionally, visual supports can be used with all students regardless of their intellectual capacities or verbal abilities. In students with ASD, visual supports are highly effective with higher functioning students, such as those with Asperger's Syndrome, as well as more severely impaired students with classic forms of autism."
