di: ESL student with ASD

[Aimee Taylor]

I recommend watching the whole thing but at 30:55 starts the language details of YouTube video below. Need language builder cards aka language builder: picture nouns. 30 minutes is very short time but you could fit at least 3 modules/sessions with good instructional control. You need some strong reinforcers if you can’t use food aka spinning light toy or small clips of favorite dvd/tv or mirror or swing or whatever the reinforcers is/are. Small interactions with reinforcers after running three fluency checks slowly delivering smaller or earned reinforcer after meeting fluency goals. See other resources on reinforcer delivery schemes. Start with colors since that is immediate success hopefully.Strengthening Reading Comprehension Skills through Fluency Building of Core Language Components

This topic is just so large with so little out there other than l4l aka language for learning but that is designed for longer sessions. I would recommend headsprout “mousing around” but heard that program is no longer available.
For the math try Maloney method aka Michael Maloney Teach Your Children To Do Math Well. That website has under downloads for $4.95 Math Counting Fluency that includes  rote counting forwards and backwards as well as skip counting. Be careful that this is not just echoing type behavior (where Funnix was useful) aka the child recognizing one to one corresponding between naming/counting and object quantity aka manipulatives or abacus.The Maloney Method » Download Products

A little more advanced - but the child isn’t getting any younger - Haughton Learning Center has rapid automatic naming module that might be useful.Curriculum - Haughton Learning Center

Dear List,
I have a 4 year old student with no official diagnosis but who displays behavior in line with the description of children with autism - delayed language development, frequent tantrums, restricted areas of interest etc. Our school is not set up to deliver a program like the Low Performers Manual, but I would like to do better for him in the 30 minutes one-on-one lesson I have with him weekly. Currently, I follow his interest in colors and numbers - he can count to above 100 - but this leaves a significant deficit in other vocabulary and communication. I tried Funnix Math but this was predictably too advanced, and he mainly wanted to play with the buttons. 
I know I have an uphill struggle as I have let him control lessons for many weeks now, but if members of the list have recommendations for how to turn things around I am all ears. 
Also, if you have recommendations for reading on the subject of autism please let me know. I am looking at Unmasking Autism by Devon Price, Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew by Ellen Notbohm, and The Way I See It by Temple Grandin in case anyone has experience with these. 
Thanks for your insight,Chris_______________________________________________
