Updated and revised in response to research and reader feedback, the second edition of this popular guide is more user friendly than ever. The simple, two-part format breaks the information into practical, accessible sections. Section I details how to use the activity-based approach with children from birth to 5 years of age. Section II provides a concise history of developments in early intervention and then explains why activity-based intervention effectively promotes naturalistic learning opportunities. Child-directed techniques and ready-to-use forms assist teachers and interventionists to individualize goals and objectives, match developmental levels, plan and execute program schedules and activities, and monitor child progress over time. An Activity-Based Approach to Early Intervention, Second Edition, is an ideal text for undergraduate and graduate students of early intervention, special education, and child development, and it serves as a practical in-service resource for program administrators, therapists, interventionists, and other members of transdisciplinary teams.
