Comprehensive Kindergarten Autism Curriculum
AAED’s kindergarten curriculum offers a balanced and engaging educational experience that fosters growth in all areas of development. We focus on key areas such as:
Academic Skills
Our curriculum includes foundational subjects like reading, math, science, and social studies, tailored to each child's learning pace and style. We use small group rotations to ensure focused instruction in each subject area.
Social Skills and Communication
Developing social skills and effective communication is crucial for children with autism. Our program includes targeted activities and therapies to enhance speech, language, and social interaction, helping children build meaningful relationships and communicate effectively.
Life Skills
We emphasize the development of essential life skills that help children become more independent. This includes activities that teach self-care, organization, and problem-solving, tailored to each child's abilities and needs.
Behavioral Support
Our board-certified behavior analyst works with students to address behavioral challenges and develop positive behavior strategies. We understand that behavior is often a form of communication, and we work to understand and address the underlying needs behind each behavior.
Engaging Kindergarten Activities For Autism Students
Kindergarten students at AAED enjoy engaging and educational activities designed to help foster a love for learning. These activities may include:
Hands-On Learning
We believe in the power of hands-on learning to engage and motivate students. Our classrooms are equipped with various learning stations where children can explore subjects through interactive and tactile experiences.
Social Play
Play is an essential component of learning, especially for young children. We incorporate structured and unstructured play activities that encourage social interaction, cooperation, and imaginative play.
Sensory Integration
Sensory activities are a crucial part of our program. Our sensory rooms and classroom sensory stations provide opportunities for students to engage in activities that help regulate their sensory input and enhance their focus and learning.
Therapeutic Support
In-house Speech and Occupational Therapy are integrated into the school day, ensuring that children receive the support they need to develop their skills in a familiar and comfortable environment.
