If you are someone that

This product is compatible with ABLLS task Q16- Reads and Follows Simple Directions on Worksheets. Included are two forms that include 10 sentences with 3 directions (the first mastery for Q16) and two forms with 20 sentences with 6 directions. There are two forms for each mastery so students are following the directions instead of memorizing the answers (students with autism have awesome visual memory!) Even if you don't specifically use ABLLS for your students, this is a good resource

This is one of my favorite token boards! It is a behavioral intervention for students that generally do their work at their desk, but also engage in undesired behaviors during work. Using a time-interval system, students work for a short amount of time WITHOUT behaviors to receive a reinforcer. As the student progresses, the amount of time increases. I had a student that yelled throughout her work sessions for two weeks straight. After using this token board she works quietly for 25 minute

This is a great template for self-contained autism classrooms. In reality, the paraprofessionals will be running the classroom because it takes intimate knowledge of the students and routines to get through the day smoothly. This is a cheat sheet for substitutes giving basic information about the class so they have skeletal framework of how the day should run. If we tried to explain everything they needed to know, they'd be reading all day!

Here is the ABLLS template I use to take data. It has everything you need to know about the current target, including what the goal is, the objective, and the qualifications for mastery.

This is helpful to document that students are receiving all the therapeutic services listed in their IEP (speech/OT/dance/music etc.) and to make sure that students receive direct services in accordance with their IEP. This is especially helpful to have a record when therapists are unable to come during scheduled therapy times so they can meet the required amount of therapy as noted in the IEP.

This is a great product for students with autism that can't communicate what they want or enjoy. I provide these to parents at Open House to get to know my students a little bit before the first day of school. This reinforcer brainstorm helps me know how to motivate students to participate in lessons, as well as possible behavioral triggers and medical concerns. I put these at the front of every student's binder :)

It will be part of my "Clip Cards" spring package, coming soon!
