This inventive colour picture book uses the metaphor of a train to teach basic conventions of conversation to children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). \nEngines are like greetings; they get the train going. Freight wagons are like different speakers' turns; it is good to have at least a few when you are in conversation. A set of points guiding a train from one track to another is like a tactful change in the topic of conversation. When a conversation veers off-topic it is like a derailed train. As well as attractive colour photographs of trains, the book contains engaging photocopiable worksheets and colouring pages to help promote skill generalisation. \nThis highly visual approach to conversation is ideally suited to children with ASDs aged approximately 5-13.\n\nThe Conversation Train\nA Visual Approach to Conversation for Children on the Autism Spectrum\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked servic;
