• Designed for parents and therapists who teach language to children with autism, Asperger's syndrome and other related developmental disorders.
• Step by step "How to" manual with 400 pages of instructions, explanations, examples, games and cards that attack language weaknesses common to children with pervasive developmental disorders.
• Based on professional speech pathology methods developed specifically to teach children with autism and related disorders the language skills they need in school and in life.
• Areas Targeted include Social Language, General Knowledge, Grammar and Syntax, Functional Knowledge, Written Expression, and Language-Based Academic Concepts such as sequencing, problem-solving, time, and money.
• Children Who Benefit from this manual are those that are visual learners. By this we mean that they are able to learn better with their eyes than their ears. The entire book is based on this principle.
• The child must be table ready (able to sit willingly at a table for short periods of time). The child must also be able to communicate to some extent, either through limited verbal communication, through signing or through the use of a picture communication system.
• This Book should be introduced once the child has learned one and two word sentences, has some basic vocabulary, and can answer simple "What" or "Where" questions from a picture book. The exercises in Teach Me Language take the child from one and two word sentences to more complex sentences and lay the foundation for conversation. The various activities in Teach Me Language are appropriate for children from kindergarten through the teenage years, with simple adaptation for cognitive level i.e. the materials become more difficult, yet the activities remain structured in the same way.

This Video is designed for parents of a child just diagnosed with autism who want a no nonsense, step-by-step roadmap for medically necessary autism treatment. This is the "how to" video to set up science-based treatment, presented in a clear and straightforward way.
A suggested ABA program is included.

Parents Who Benefit have a child diagnosed with autism - or a related pervasive developmental disorder - and are looking for 'best practice' treatment for their child, as recommended by mental health professionals, the New York State Department of Health and the U.S. Surgeon General's report on mental health.

About the Presenter …
Sabrina Freeman, Ph.D., received her doctorate from Stanford University. Dr. Freeman, a sociologist and publisher, is also the mother of a child with autism and founder of the parent self-help group, Families for Early Autism Treatment of B.C., Dr. Freeman has put her many years of experience with autism treatment and advocacy into this important video guide for new parents. As the author of Teach Me Language and Executive Director of F.E.A.T. of B.C., Dr. Freeman has guided thousands of parents around the world on what to do with their children, newly diagnosed with autism. This 35 minute video puts together all those years and countless hours of questions and answers from calls of parents who all say, "my child just got diagnosed with autism: now what do I do?"

Practical and Concise Information on autism treatment is in short supply but essential for parents to know how to set up a science-based treatment program for their child. Dr. Freeman strongly supports the view that the earlier a child begins therapy, the better the outcome - there's no time to waste! The goal of this video is to help parents who may not otherwise receive important autism treatment information from health professionals or other well-informed parents who have already traveled down this long and often confusing road.
