Synopsis:

A hands-on resource that's already helped thousands of other parents, this book gives you proven strategies for teaching the life skills children from age 3 through young adulthood need to live as independently as possible. You'll start with an easy-to-read overview of teaching methods, go deeper with a step-by-step guide to teaching seven types of skills (see sidebar), and find updates to this edition that help you manage behavior challenges, from identifying the problem and examining behavior to encouraging alternative behaviors, strengthen partnerships with other teachers in the child's life during IEP meetings, through classroom volunteer work, and in everyday communication with them, and use technology - such as email, instant messaging, Internet communities, search engines, and software - as a source of information and support.
