Behavior Management



From Jerry Webster, your Guide to Special Education
April 2nd was the first World Autism Awareness Day, created by presidential proclamation. Certainly we need to start with awareness, but we're going to need much more than that to succeed with this growing population. April is also pink slip time. Teachers all over the country are receiving pink slips, and will spend the summer wondering whether they will have a job in September.

April is Autism Awareness Month
President Obama declared April 2nd World Autism Awareness Day at the beginning of a month dedicated to building awareness around our communities of autism: the challenges, the special gifts and needs that need to addressed to help this special population succeed in our communities, among their families and neighbors.

Autism Spectrum Disorders
General information in this article will lead you on to other resources I have created for teachers of children on the Autism Spectrum. Learn about characteristics, spots on the spectrum and go on to learn about discrete trial training, behavior management strategies and other tools for teaching children on the spectrum.

Teach Like a Champion - Technique 43, Part Two

About Today: Allergy Season on a Budget

If you can't see this email, click here

About.com


From Jen Hubley, your About Today Editor
It's my favorite time of year again: Allergy season, or as I like to call it, "Are you OK?" season. Because for the next three months, I'll be wandering around looking drugged and/or like I have the plague.

Inexpensive Ways to Treat Your Allergies
Also, I'll be crabby about money, because allergy medicine? Is not cheap. I'm trying to convince my drugstore to do some kind of coffee card program. Nine purchases of allergy meds, and the tenth one is free!

What Causes Seasonal Allergies?
When I was a kid, I thought allergies were colds you caught from trees. I spent a great deal of time waiting for our oak tree to sneeze, and being disappointed.

How to Avoid Pollen
If you're allergic to cats, you can probably avoid cats. But if you're allergic to pollen, do you just avoid ... outside?

Do You Have a Cold or Allergies?
The trickiest call this time of year: You wake up feeling a little sniffly and achy and gross. Is it your old friend allergies? Or do you have a cold?
