What Autism Workbooks are included in the Autism Activities Workbook Bundle?

The Decreasing Difficult Behaviors Workbook

Are you a parent, teacher or therapist struggling to understand your child or students’ puzzling behaviors? This workbook will help!

“Difficult” behaviors are communication and a huge part of helping a child with autism is decoding their behaviors to help get them under control so that the child feels safe and reassured. You may also be inadvertently reinforcing certain behaviors because you don’t understand what is maintaining them. Any behavior that persists is being reinforced. That is the law of behavior.

The Communication Skills Workbook

If you are a parent of a child with autism, or working with children with autism, then building communication is central to your learning program. Difficulty communicating is at the core of an autism diagnosis and something that all autistic individuals struggle with, whether that is speaking fluently, understanding receptive language or having a back and forth conversation.
