The aim of this essay is to look at Autism within Early Years settings. It will consider if a child who presents with Autistic traits which leads to behaviour issues, receives the inclusive learning environment that is required for them to reach their full potential. It will examine the factors that can affect children with Autism and reflect on how this makes a difference to their behaviour; positive and negative, evaluating whether Early Years Settings are equipped to manage in these situations. It will consider what parents, carer's, practitioners and other professionals can do to ensure the child has the correct learning environment to meet their individual needs. Following Bera (2011) unstructured interviews will be undertaken, research
The three distinctive behaviours of Autism are: Repetitive behaviours, problems with verbal and nonverbal communication and social interaction. When parents realize that their child has autism they should be emotionally strong. Being consistent in your child’s learning environment is very key to reinforce learning. Also they should be able to find non-verbal ways to communicate with their child. You just have to learn their language of communication.
Identify settings, which provide early year’s education and care. Statutory Service Statutory services are provided by the government. For example, every child has right to use opticians, dentist, transport and education free because the government pays for them. Mentions to facilities provided by the local authority as a matter of course. Examples of statutory services contain benefits, social services, hospital treatment on the NHS and schools.

Studies show that early interventions provided for children with social and behavioural problems which are seen in children diagnosed with conditions such as Autism provides better outcomes(Bruinsma, Koegel, & Koegel, 2004) Literature has also revealed that preterm children who are vulnerable to developmental issues gain benefit from early interventions however it was seen that more improvements of the development of cognition is gained than the other domains (Barrera, Doucet, & Kitching, 1990; Brooks-gunn et al., 2011; Orton, Spittle, Doyle, Anderson, & Boyd, 2009) Advantages of early interventions are gained not only by the children and professionals but the parents’ as well. Studies reveal that families prefer early interventions and actively participate in the programmes.

This assignment will focus on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) as an intervention that aims to reduce the challenges experienced by some people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Tony Attwood, clinical psychologist states that whilst an individual with Autism can have ‘considerable intellectual ability, ‘there is invariably confusion and immaturity with regard to feelings.’ (Attwood, 2015). CBT focuses on the individual’s development and recognition of emotions and feelings, both their psychological and physiological manifestations, aiming to teach individuals how to recognise and identify dysfunctional or negative thought patterns. ‘It is a psychotherapeutic intervention aimed at enabling an individual to understand the thoughts and feelings
They demonstrate literature may hold one of the keys to helping children build their language and communication skills as well as help the child with autism and those without it to develop social connections with each other. When childhood disorders are frequently discussed whether on media or public, many authors have responded with stories told through the perspective of characters who are differently able and use it as teaching materials to public about all the children should be accepted and equal, no matter who you are. From one of the references uses in the content, Sharon Andrew, an author who says that, “inclusion literature, a powerful tool for helping students without disabilities develop an awareness of and tolerance for those with disabilities” (Miller 17). These perspectives broaden horizons for all readers and help create more environments and health realted place where all children are accepted. Also, by using inclusion literature it can help young people develop awareness and empathy by providing a
Introduction Early intervention is consists of services and supports designed to help children who have developmental delays/special needs, and their families. Early intervention is a way to develop children who suffers from different disorders to be as normal children who can deal daily with life. Early intervention services are a range of targeted services to help young children who have developmental delays or specific health conditions, and there are different types of specialists work with these kids. In this task we will define early intervention, and discuss the steps of the process of intervention. We have chosen autism as a disability, because we want as group to know more about it, and to know how to work with them and learn
According to the textbook, “development is often divided into three broad domains: physical, cognitive, and emotional and social.(TB p.5) For the purpose of this essay, I will focus on the physical developmental domain of a male, kindergarten student age 5, diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The physical developmental domain includes changes in body size, proportions, appearance, functioning of body systems, perceptual and motor capacities, and physical health (TB p.5). I find it important to include that, the three domains are not independent from each other, nor stand alone. Relatively, they interconnect, influence, and interact in a continual process that molds the whole child into who they will become.
Many people with autism cope well with structured conversations (which are the kind generally required in a working environment) and are very open to learning social skills, which can be easily acquired through appropriate training. It is also wrong to think that autistic people are all introverted and don’t like being with people. While many are like this, there are also large numbers who are naturally extroverts and love being with people. They are the ones who suffer most from rejection by society and prolonged periods of
HighScope Research Paper Introduction HighScope is an Early Childhood Curriculum that believes children and adults learn best by experiencing direct, hands-on interaction with people, materials, events, and ideas (HighScope, n.d, n.p.). This is a principle that has been research for many decades and is the foundation of teaching and learning of HighScope’s approach (HighScope, n.d, n.p.). This paper is going to explain on the history, curriculum, parent involvement, teacher and child roles, and unique characteristics of the HighScope model.
All ten sites will keep track of school-aged children and preschool-aged children to help researchers to understand the increased numbers of children with autism, and to help educate people in various communities. Also these sites will help improve the understanding of the implications of autism and other developmental
