Week 2...embedding a video

Wow! All this technology is challenging me!! I am finding lots of information on the internet to help me and one of the topics I am interested in right now for my job is autism.  Since I am a special education teacher, I know more about autism than the general public. However, when it comes to dealing with specific children and how to educate them, I feel very inadaquate. I found this video that highlights developmental materials that can be used to teach children with autism or developmental delays.  Since I like hands-on activities, these Shoebox Tasks appealed to me. I would be interested to know what you think.

Have you ever used these materials?
If so, what kind of success have you had?
Tell me about the students who used them.
How do these fit into the mandates to teach to general education standards?
