How many of you were out in Polycom- land last Wed for the AEA Autism Assessment Training with Jackie Loos and Coletta Jaeger?
If not, I'd like to quickly summarize a few highlights. First of all, did you know each office has a 3 ring binder with autism team procedures,roles of the autism resource team and samples of several screening tools and tools for educational diagnosis of autism? Ask about the Underlying Characteristics Checklist (ages 3 months - 72 months) or check out the Sensory History Checklist or the Autism Social Skills Profile for starters.
Did you know that each summer the autism team offers 2 summer classes - this year there will be a class in Pocahontas June 11-13 and in Estherville on August 6-8?
And finally, did you know that within our ECSE department, Tammy Berger, Marlene Armbrecht, and Becky Coffelt serve on the Autism Resource Team? Thank you ladies!
