Introduction to Attention Autism – Tuesday 4th November, 9.30am-2.30pm

Attention Autism is a teaching approach designed to help children, especially those with autism, develop attention and communication skills in a fun and engaging way. Created by speech and language therapist Gina Davies, the method focuses on captivating the child’s attention through visually stimulating activities, often in a group setting.

The program typically has four stages:
1. **Focusing attention**: The adult leads an activity that grabs everyone’s attention.
2. **Sustaining attention**: The child watches as the adult continues with a slightly more complex activity.
3. **Shifting attention**: The child is encouraged to participate in a turn-taking activity.
4. **Individual engagement**: The child is given the chance to complete a task independently.

By making learning enjoyable and sensory-rich, it helps children improve their ability to focus, communicate, and interact with others.

Our Introduction to Attention Autism is a full day course that introduces you to the 4 stages of Attention Autism and how to deliver it in your setting.

This training is ‘in person’ in our Leyland office.
