Abstract

Breastfeeding needs the most attention in the first five days after birth, particularly the first hours. *Droplet?s mission is to encourage parents to take advantage of this critical window with the most effective breastfeeding techniques to prevent common challenges. What happens (or doesn?t happen) in the earliest hours matters the most. This website provides teaching videos aimed at new parents but also useful for health professionals.

Abstract

This guide is a sexuality and sex education resource written specifically for autistic people age 15 and up. Autistic people sometimes don't have the chance to learn about sexuality and sex in ways that work for them, so OAR created this guide as a starting point to change that.

In each of the nine sections of the guide, self-advocates will be able to read articles and watch brief videos before testing their knowledge about a given topic and practicing new skills.

Abstract

Since we introduced the Superflex® Curriculum in 2008, creative educators, therapists, parents, and related service professionals have come up with all sorts of new ways to teach the concepts and ideas related to Superflex. Yet, you wanted games and visual teaching tools to make your teachings even better.

The Thinkables & Unthinkables Double Deck is the superflexible teaching tool you asked for to use with individuals who are learning about or have already been introduced to Superflex, the 14 original Unthinkables, and the newer characters, the Thinkables (first mentioned in our book, Social Town Citizens Discover 82 New Unthinkables for Superflex to Outsmart).

You take the lead in using the cards ? they?re a blank canvas of possibilities!

Create games such as ?Go Fish? with the cards

Use the Thinkables cards to say ?good job? when a child or student has mostly put an Unthinkable to rest

Use an Unthinkable card as a visual tool to remind a student to use his/her strategies when one of those clever, sneaky characters is invading the student?s brain

Pick an Unthinkable or Thinkable and play ?I Spy?? where students use their Social Detective skills to look for that character showing up in themselves or others in the group, the classroom, or the school.

The possibilities are endless, limited only by your imagination and your own superflexible thinking!

Content

Unthinkables deck: 52 cards with multiples of each of 14 Unthinkable characters

Thinkables deck: 52 cards with multiples of each of 14 Thinkable characters and Superflex cards

Cards contain the character?s image, name, AND powers. Cards are plastic coated, standard playing card size.

Abstract

Superflex Superdecks are card games created to invoke your own superflexible thinking as you teach students to be more superflexible social thinkers. It's all about superflexibility! The game pack is a companion teaching tool to the popular Superflex Curriculum, which helps parents and professionals teach children ages 8 to 11 about social thinking, social regulation, and social problem solving.

The Superdecks are not an introduction to Superflex, and should only be used with students who are already familiar with the concept of being a Social Detective (introduced in the book, You Are a Social Detective), and are either working through or have completed the Superflex Curriculum. The games and activities provided prompt players to think about the powers of the characters, brainstorm which Unthinkable might appear in a situation, match strategies to characters, or Thinkables and Unthinkables, and use their social thinking in other superflexible ways.
