Presenting the first big matching book for special needs children by AutiSpark. This workbook especially caters to kids with autism. It will help autistic kids to practice and master the basic skill of matching. Many autistic children often find it difficult to learn at the same pace as other kids. They have to be taught basic concepts in a step by step way. Basic skills like matching and sorting become a challenge for them. Kids with special needs require learning materials which are designed especially for them. AutiSpark was started to fill this gap and help kids with special needs learn better and faster.Repetitive practice will help kids with autism learn important concepts quickly. The learning materials have been created under the guidance of special educators and expert special needs parents. We hope that this autism workbook will help your child master matching. This workbook is divided into 6 sections:1) Match Same Pictures:The child learns to match identical pictures in the worksheets. The number of pictures in each page increases slowly so that the child can match a bigger collection of pictures.2) Match Similar PicturesAfter matching identical pictures, a child must master matching of non-identical pictures. This is matching the similar types of items that look different. Eg. a soccer ball with a basketball.3) Match Related PicturesThis skill builds concepts to help a child learn advanced categorizing and matching. Here, a child has to match associated or related pictures like a spider with its web or a pencil with a sharpner.4) Match Uppercase LettersKids can practice recognition of uppercase letters with matching of same letters. These worksheets teach both the concept of matching same pictures and practicing ABCs.5) Match Lowercase LettersHere, kids can practice matching of lowercase letters. After uppercase, the transition to lowercase letters will help kids master both matching and the alphabet.6) Match the NumbersMatching of numbers 1 to 10 will help a child perfect their matching skills along with recognition of numbers.

Living beyond Asperger's Matthew Kenslow was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, which is within the autistic spectrum, when he was six years old. He shares its common symptoms, such as lacking social and conversational skills, and having poor eye contact with others. In school he had difficulty with certain subjects, but others (like math and science) came easily to him. He has the ability to remember a myriad of facts and the events in his life-some he would rather forget! Juggling the Issues: Living With Asperger's Syndrome is a collection of short stories from his life. He describes many of the issues that those with autism and Asperger's face each day. He also talks about some of the positive aspects of having Asperger's as well. What is life like living with Asperger's? Matthew describes it as having "an enhancer" plugged into his brain, which accelerates his thoughts and even his emotions. "Asperger's will deepen everything's significance, causing us to take things to a more intense level," he confides. If you want to better understand those living with Asperger's, you need to read this book. The insights Kenslow shares come from his deep experience of living with it and making the most of life's opportunities.
