Autism EDU

Autism EDU Acceptance Tools and Assemblies

Autism Facts and Autism Awareness Education

One of the most vulnerable student populations is the autistic. Misunderstood and often socially awkward, they are subject to bullying and isolation. You may have students on the autism spectrum in your classroom who are struggling to communicate and interact with their peers.

Autism EDU is a collection of innovative educational tools to introduce autism in the classroom and help you create an inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome and valued. These tools were developed to capture and engage students’ attention, ignite their curiosities and inspire discussions. The focus is on ‘abilities’ instead of ‘disabilities’ and ‘similarities’ over ‘differences’ for better understanding and connection.

Hand out these autism facts to accompany any of the Autism EDU modules:

  • Autism Facts for Kids
  • Autism Myths and Stereotypes
  • Autism Glossary

If you are in the San Francisco Bay Area, we do live School visits, assemblies, and presentations.

Module1-Mighty-League-Vol-1

Autism Education: Mighty League, The Terrible Taunting SUBJECTS: Language Arts, Literacy in Social Issues
THEMES: Bullying, Understanding Autism and Aspergers Syndrome, Friendship

This Autism EDU module’s cornerstone is a story about a boy who is different. The reader sees inside his imagination where he is the superhero leader of the Mighty League of crime fighters. Contrast it with the real view of his school day where he encounters a bully on the school playground. Readers discover through the hero’s journal entries that he has Aspergers Syndrome and what it means to be someone on the autism spectrum. This award-winning tale is based on a true story.

Here’s what comes with Module 1: Mighty League, Vol 1

  • PowerPoint version of Mighty League 1 with audio
  • Sample Script for PowerPoint Presentation
  • Video version of Mighty League 1
  • Student Handout with journal entries

Autism Education: The Horrible Hug

SUBJECTS: Language Arts, Literacy in Social Issues
THEMES: Social and Emotional Learning, Self and Peer Acceptance, Understanding Autism and Aspergers Syndrome

The Mighty League series continues and, in this Autism EDU module, the superhero turns starship captain embarking on a journey to an alien planet (a brand new school). It’s an overwhelming, fear-of-the-unknown experience for any child, but amplified when you are on the autism spectrum. The story teaches lessons on Aspergers Syndrome, autism, acceptance, self-confidence, and trust. It is also based on a true story.

Here’s what comes with Module 2: Mighty League, Vol 2
