Executive Function Essentials in the Classroom Strategies to Support Learning and Growth
By Zoe Beezer
What is executive functioning? How does it affect learning? Executive functions (EFs) are a group of complex mental processes and cognitive abilities required to organize thoughts and activities, prioritize tasks, manage time efficiently, make decisions and regulate our behaviour and emotions. They do not reach maturity until an individual is well into their 20s, and so teachers and educators have enormous potential to help pupils hone those skills so that they are better equipped for the process of learning. But what do you do if its impaired? This guide includes a step-by-step approach to improving executive functioning within the classroom and beyond. It will provide effective strategies to use in daily life, and show teachers how to enhance awareness in the classroom, as well as giving students activities to do, to develop their own skills.

Sensory Solutions in the Classroom
The Teacher's Guide to Fidgeting, Inattention and Restlessness
By Monique Thoonsen, Carmen Lamp
Every teacher knows them - the students who are continuously balancing on their chair legs or who prefer to hide in their hoodies all day long. These students are using all kinds of tricks to be able to stay focused, as they are under- or overresponsive to sensory input and trying to restore their balance. Children who struggle with processing sensory input can experience a wide range of symptoms, including hypersensitivity to sound, sight and touch, poor fine motor skills and easy distractibility. Using this accessible, science-based guide, school staff can support these students by understanding their symptoms and how they impact their learning. Teachers can learn to look at students in a different way: through so-called 'SPi glasses', introduced in the book.

Rethinking Disability and Mathematics
A UDL Math Classroom Guide for Grades K-8
By Rachel Lambert
Every child has a right to make sense of math, and to use math to make sense of their worlds. Despite their gifts, students with disabilities are often viewed from a deficit standpoint in mathematics classrooms. These students are often conceptualized as needing to be fixed or remediated. Rethinking Disability and Mathematics argues that mathematics should be a transformative space for these students, a place where they can discover their power and potential and be appreciated for their many strengths. Author Rachel Lambert introduces Universal Design for Learning for Math (UDL Math), a way to design math classrooms that empowers disabled and neurodiverse students to engage in mathematics in ways that lead to meaningful and joyful math learning. The book showcases how UDL Math can open up mathematics classrooms so that they provide access to meaningful understanding and an identity as a math learner to a wider range of students.

What to Do When Everything Feels Too Much or Not Nearly Enough
By Clare Ward, James Galpin

Making Sense of Your Senses Sensory Solutions Workbook
By Monique Thoonsen, Ruud Bijman
Do you ever feel like your classroom is just too loud? Maybe it has too many noisy kids in it?! Or maybe you wish there were more colours on the walls? There is a reason you feel this way and it's all because of your eight (yes eight!) senses.
In this workbook you will get to know all about your senses and a number of friendly animals along the way. Fun activities will help you pin down what sorts of smells, sounds, textures, tastes and movements you like, which you don't like and how much of these is too much.
By completing the worksheets you'll learn all about sensory processing and what effect it can have on how you feel. Because by finding out for example, that you hate scratchy jumpers, but that the sounds of birds chirping really calms you down, you can find the right kind of sensory input to make you feel better when you need it most!
And adult helpers - there is an instruction manual available for you to know exactly how to coach the child you are supporting, so you can both work together on making sense of your senses!

Students with Autism
How to improve language, literacy and academic success
By Katharine Beals
Beals describes the root causes of the language and learning challenges in autism, their various academic consequences, and a variety of tools and strategies for addressing them. Drawing on what the most current evidence shows about the nature of autism and which therapies are most successful, the book discusses the implications for autism-friendly instruction in academic subjects, noting the ways in which today's classrooms come up short, and suggesting various adjustments that teachers can make.
Instead of focusing on social and behavioral issues, general accommodations, and general ways to address learning difficulties, Beals zeros in on academics, on accommodations within specific academic subjects, and on techniques that target autism-specific deficits, situating the issue of educational access within the broader context of disability rights, neurodiversity, and debates about what disability rights and neurodiversity should encompass.
Complete acceptance of individuals on the autism spectrum must include complete educational access. This means rethinking assumptions about autistic students, about how we teach expressive language, about how we teach reading comprehension, and about what and how we teach in the many K-12 classrooms attended by autistic students.

By Peter Vermeulen, Kobe Vanroy
What Really Works for Children with Autism aims to be a guide for anyone who has a child with autism, as well as for educators and caregivers.
Many difficulties for these children arise due to a lack of knowledge about what exactly autism is and what its consequences are. This book provides detailed information about: What autism is and what the most important needs of these children are. How you can support them in their sometimes strange or difficult behavior. How to deal with this as a (grand)parent, teacher, therapist, or supervisor.
You will also find practical tools that will help you to persevere and give the best of yourself every day to guide these children. You will not recognize everything: every child with autism is unique.
What Really Works for Children with Autism will help you avoid obstacles, tackle challenges and handle children to speak to their strengths. This allows them to develop a productive relationship with themselves, with parents and teachers, and with other important people in their lives.

Active Games for Children on the Autism Spectrum
Physical Literacy for Life
By Erin Bennett, Mary Dyck
Every school wants to be inclusive. But often children on the autism spectrum are left behind when it comes to participating in physical education and becoming physically literate-in part because many physical educators feel unprepared to include children on the spectrum in class activities.
That's where Active Games for Children on the Autism Spectrum comes in. Theoretical Framework, Games, and Lesson Plans
This text provides both the adaptive framework teachers need and more than 80 games to help children on the spectrum take part in physical activity, learn from games, and enjoy being active.
Beyond the framework and games, the book will help physical educators, parents and caregivers, and others develop the courage, competence, and confidence they need to teach and help children on the autism spectrum.
