Developed for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) with a developmental age of approximately 2-4 years, this comprehensive ABA curriculum contains everything needed to teach foundational level skills such as appropriate sitting, attention, eye contact, motor skills, basic receptive and expressive language skills, play and basic skills of daily living. Evidence-based, the resource guides professionals step-by-step through using ABA task analyses to teach over 150 different skills. Uniquely to this program, the task analyses can be individualized to meet the needs and interests of the child, and instructions are given on how to do this. An accompanying CD contains the teaching materials needed to implement the program, including over 1000 printable flash cards, as well handy printable copies of the task analyses, record forms and checklists. The authors also provide guidance on creating an effective environment for applying ABA, as well as a wealth of practical teaching strategies for ensuring therapy success. This is an unparalleled resource for professionals working with children with ASDs who are looking for a robust and ready-to-implement ABA curriculum. It will be a valuable tool for behaviour analysts, teachers, psychologists, occupational therapists and students in these fields, as well as to parents working with professionals to implement an ABA program.
