Teaching strategies for Autism

This group is to share your most successful boardmaker lessons and ideas that you have found successful with autistic students. The students can range anywhere from high functioning to low functioning. The group can share effective behavior programs and good social stories that have helped eliminate some of the behavior problems of autistic students.

This group is a sharing place for print and on-screen behavioral supports. We'll share boards and great ideas!

This group recognizes that an increasing number of schools are enabling their staff to access interactive, white boards such as Smart Board and Promethium Boards to provide dynamic, interactive, and effective instruction through whole class and individual activities. The goal of this group is to provide a specific place for those individuals to find functional and useful Boardmaker Software Family activities that either were made specifically for these interactive, white boards or have been modified from their original form to be used on these boards. Group will be actively moderated by an Implementation Training Specialist from DynaVox Mayer-Johnson. Active discussion and posting of activities that members have made or found useful for interactive, white boards is encouraged. Please write a short description of how activity was/is used. Thanks!

This group is for sharing adapted science experiments/labs for kids and adults with severe or multiple special needs. Please go beyond "read and respond", sorting and other paper only work and share hands-on (and switch on!) experiments and labs.
