COMMUNICATION HELPS

Signing Time We used Signing Time with our children. Several of them had speech delays and signing helped to reduce the frustration of not being able to communicate. The songs are fun and engaging. In all it is easy to use and learn.

MATH

So lets start with a book that has been great teaching one to one.

Here’s one that I hope you can find… M&M counting book. I went through this book with my daughter. She was having processing problems and the one to one relation things to numbers wasn’t happening. We would count out the M&M and place them on the pictures. After the book was done she got to count the M&M and she could eat the ones she was able to count.

Here are a couple of more manipulatives that you might incorporate into your life.

Here are some texts or workbook based math programs that lend themselves to outside the norm learners:

Horizons Math, this is from the Alpha Omega publishers. This programs is a spiral program but it moves swiftly. The workbooks are visually interesting without being glossy over stimulating material. This is great to start with or for a learner that has strong math skills.

Saxon Math, This is a very straight forward math text approach. Manipulatives can make this program more interactive.

Math-U-See has been recomended by several of my friends with autistic child. They tell me the mix of manipulatives and paper work is a nice balance. I have yet to get my hands on this but I am excited to check it out.

Shiller Math This is my newest find. This is a Montessori-based math system. Montessori method is highly interactive and thus for our learners that need more time and input to remember will love this. Again I have yet to get my hands on this but I am trying.

Miquon math, Do you have a highly distractible child? A child that needs to feel and work with their hands to understand math concepts. Here you go! Miquon’s workbooks are simple and plain, visually. They work with manipulatives and show you how. My ADHD child found this workbook “easy to look at”. I was very happy with the high quality of the math work and the price which is quite low.

Children often have uneven learning through out the various subjects but also within a single subject. My daughter loved fractions so at a first grade level her fraction skills were a fourth grade.I went looking for specific material to keep teaching her fractions at an accelerated pace and found there…

Key to….Books This is a series of math workbooks (small books). It is topic specific such as fractions, percents, decimals ect. If your child is behind in a specific area or ahead using this set can help. It takes you from the beginning of the subject through high school.
