Autism Resources -Part 5

It’s Monday and am I excited! I am about to show you all the POT OF GOLD at the end of the rainbow! This website (http://www.practicalautismresources.com/printables) is phenomenal when it comes to ready-made printable resources for your kids within the Autism Spectrum. Just peruse their offerings and click PRINT. How easy is that? (and if you are wondering, yes, Ina Garten a.k.a. the Barefoot Contessa is my favorite chef….and where I get the saying “How easy is that?”)

They offer us FREE printables for just about any topic:
• Behavior and Emotions
• Behavior Supports
• Numbers
• Associations
• Blank templates
• Categories activities—Bingo Sets
• Clocks
• Folder Tasks—Pieces
• Food Pictures—Word Cards
• Fractions
• Nouns—Functions

Everything is very clearly described. No guessing about how it is to be used.

Now if that wasn’t wonderful in and of itself, in the left hand navigation pane, you’ll also see listings for more awesomeness, like “iPad and iPod for Autism” which tells you about some of the marvelous apps available to us.

From the navigation pane check out: Great Links, Parent Resources, Data & Planning Forms, More Printable Links, Image Search helpers, and Free Worksheet Links!

If you don’t think this website is a Pot Of Gold, then you must not work in public schools, ha ha.
Now the icing on the cake is the link at the top of the page that directs you to Mrs. Riley.com which is a subscription service where by you can make your own task cards.

I hope this website leaves you as giddy as it did me when I first looked at it! I think it's awesome. I love it when the work is ready to use and all I have to do is click and print.

Enjoy this Monday off and we'll see you next week!
