One of the greatest hurdles facing children with Autism is transitioning skills from one setting to another. Many of these students have a very hard time with change in setting and schedule. Drawing from the elements of Applied Behavioral Analysis therapy, Bridging the Gap uses essential skills and methods to allow children with Autism to transition into public school smoothly. This accessible curriculum uses ABA terminology and skills in a preschool schedule format. The lessons are designed to allow for a certain amount of flexibility, so that each element is appropriate for each student. All young children, regardless of developmental level, can gain from the social interactions and language skills. For those who are ready to mainstream from a more restrictive learning environment, the variety and layout of Bridging the Gap is designed to prepare for such a large transition. Each lesson is a bridge from therapy to a public school setting. The lessons are full of colorful crafts and exciting games developed to increase verbal and motor skills. Students will create art and acquire skills, all while heightening social awareness. With the routine containing such similar elements as traditional school, typically developing peers gain from following the curriculum as well. This combination of typically developing students and students with developmental delays creates an atmosphere of understanding, and prepares both groups for future diverse classes. As the children continue on their path of education, they will transition more smoothly and with greater success.
