Autism Work

Select a particular condition or special need. Discuss the following in terms of a child who has that particular special need:

How might play be used to assess the needs of a child with this special need?
What skills are needed by a child with this special need, and how might play help him/her develop those skills?
How might Play Therapy be effective for a child with this special need? What other kinds of therapies – that might also feel like play – can help adults meet his or her needs?
Research, select, and describe a toy that might be particularly helpful and enjoyable for a child with this specific special need.
Find a YouTube video or other resource that discusses play for special needs children and prepare a review about it for your class playmates. Include a link so your playmates can also view the resource you chose. (Please note: a review is more than a description. Do describe the resource and then evaluate its usefulness for specific audiences. Will it be helpful? Would you recommend it? To whom? Why or why not
