[CASL-L] Supporting Autistic Students in a K-4 Library

[Miller, Sarah]

I like the idea of researching & offering more resources, but every neurodiverse student’s needs are so different, knowing what their IEP goals state as needed supports makes sense to me as a starting point.

Hi Jessica and Margarida - I would be interested in exploring this too. I work with lots of kids like that in our PreK program as well as when they move up in the grades.

I have a resource from AASL 2019 which I've been looking at.

But if there are more people interested, we can find someone to meet with us.

Let me know and we can work on that.

I would be interested in any resources as well, as this year I have begun teaching a K-4 extension class that consists of students on the spectrum.

Hi All - I am thinking of creating a goal this year around supporting the needs of our autistic students in my K-4 library - specifically neurodiversity-affirming practices and creating more of a connection between myself, these students, books, and the library. Have any of you done any work in this area? If so, are there any any resources you would recommend?

Thank you!
