Synopsis:

Many children and young people with autistic spectrum disorders may do well academically at school but engaging with their peer group, participating in leisure activities and comprehending the social demands of school life may be difficult. Social interaction groups can help to develop children's and young people's understanding of social situations, and to promote their self-esteem.This photocopiable pack is designed to be used in group work with children and young people on the autistic spectrum who are in mainstream schools, and contains: the team handbook, with background information on autistic spectrum disorders and advice on planning social interaction groups; the resource bank book, containing a range of games, activities and photocopiable resources for groups; a CD with resource materials which may be printed off and used in group work; and, two sets of cards for use in social interaction groups. The pack is the outcome of the authors' work with children and young people with autistic spectrum disorders in Scotland, which was supported by the Scottish Executive Education Department.
