Here's a sample of what your student will learn in Week 1:
Keep those academic skills sharp!
Nonverbal Autism Summer School focuses on retaining important skills: reading, expressive communication and focused attention.
You'll receive access to four week's worth of daily video instruction and downloadable PDFs.
All learning materials are manipulatives in the form of hands-on activities, cut-and-paste worksheets, AAC modeling, interactive PDFs and of course, because it's summer, craft projects!
Each daily lesson takes approximately an hour to complete. The theme is ocean animals, with a focus on sharks.
Educational philosophy
Nonverbal Autism Summer School was created to support parents and educators that presume intellectual competency in nonverbal students. Our curriculum was developed by progressional educators and has been adapted for students with nonverbal autism. Our materials don't require traditional methods of expressive language (speaking/writing) to prove a student is learning.
Yes, we focus on developing expressive language skills. However, we don't use expressive language ability to measure intelligence. We believe most nonverbal students have at least average intelligence and deserve age-appropriate academic content that accommodates their communication disability while respecting their intellects.
