Intervention for Children with Autism     
By Kathleen Ann Quill
 
Backed by research-based methodology, this comprehensive assessment and intervention guide features a state-of-the-art assessment tool along with hundreds of creative ideas to promote social and communication skills. Practical background information on perspectives of autism and guidelines for designing and implementing intervention plans round out this informative guide.
 
The Assessment of Social and Communication Skills for Children with Autism contains a set of questionnaires and checklists that allows interventionists to obtain a detailed profile of a child's abilities in more than 100 subskill areas and target specific skills for intervention. Each subskill on the assessment tool has a corresponding activity sheet, which outlines intervention activities to enhance social reciprocity, imitation, solitary play, social play, group skills, and social.
