Hello, I am writing to let you know about a book that I purchased with my budget money this year called “taking care of myself”.  I have been using it with a lot of students and talking about it in meetings and just thought I would pass the information on.  It has “social scripts” about all sorts of hygiene issues and is written specifically for students with ASD.  It covers showering, blowing noses and other things that are relevant to younger students as well as puberty issues such as menstruation and changes in the body for girls and boys.  It is “wordy” with the scripts, but can be adapted – also it gives examples of ways to make the script more visual using Boardmaker.  It isn’t often that I buy a book that is so useful for so many situations.

Here is the link to Future Horizon’s,  if the link doesn’t take you to the specific book, it is categorized under “hygiene”. https://www.fhautism.com/cgi-bin/shopper.cgi?search=action&category=BK12&keywords=all

I hope that you are enjoying this beautiful weather and have a great weekend.  Tresia
