Book Reviews of Social Skills Solutions: A Hands-On Manual for Teaching Social Skills to Children with Autism

Book Review: Best book I've ever read concerning social issues with kids
Summary: 5 Stars

I've been working as a Para-educator for autistic kids for 2 years and been looking for a book like this for awhile. This is really a hands-on manual that instead of just having ideas it has a plan. I love the appendix that has the worksheet and visual aid ideas. This book uses the ABA approach and breaks everything down into modules so you are not trying to work on too many problems at once.

I have shown this to many people at work and they all love it. This will be a book I always recommend. Even though I am not a social worker or psychologist this is a book they should own too!

There is a comprehensive checklist to be used as an assessment of skills and as a method of creating goals for individual students. There are concrete strategies broken down into simple steps for using visuals, video modeling, peer play and natural occurring situations to facilitate social skills learning. Reproducible worksheets to reinforce these skills are also included for easy implementation. This great new resource will help parents and professionals get started teaching social skills right away!
