Classroom Consultation When providing services to school districts or private schools, Education Spectrum consultants will visit classrooms where individuals need support. In these cases observations are conducted and the consultant collaborates with the individual’s team to develop programing strategies for defined areas of need. This can include social, educational or behavioral needs. These consultation services can be individualized to a single student or generalized to a classroom. The length and duration of consultation would be a decision for an IEP team, based on a recommendation by our consultants. There are also occasions when classroom consultation can be utilized as a follow up to attendees from an Education Spectrum training session.
Program Development The staff at Education Spectrum has both experience and expertise in developing programs specifically for students with all levels of autism and Asperger Syndrome. When requested, consultants are available to work with teams interested in developing cutting edge and effective programs for individuals with spectrum disorders. This can include curriculum development, instructional methods, program design, environmental design, classroom management systems, social skills programming, integration of DIS services, and staff training.
School Based Assessments: Education Spectrum is able, on an availability basis, to conduct behavioral or social skills assessments at a school site.
School Assemblies: Education Spectrum is available to lead school assemblies in the area of disability awareness. The focus of these presentations is to to educate students about their peers and how they can be role models and friends. Assemblies can also teach specifically about autism.
