      Here come the Aspie girls!

      by Christine Deroin,Gilles Martinez

      Alice is a teenager everyone has always described as high-potential without recognizing the depth of her discomfort. Moving and changing middle schools throws her for a loop, bringing out these aspects of her personality. Her admiration for Fanny, star of the class, and her desire to be like her just to be loved, will endanger her and send her world spinning. Asperger syndrome is rarely diagnosed in children, but doing so earlier would not only help teenage girls who have it thrive, but also those around them learn to accept it.

      An outcast look at comics, bigatory and school shootings

      by Tom Campbell

      A book for every teacher, every parent, every teenager Written from the perspective of the classroom avenger, this book explores distorted thinking and reveals the ‘socially acceptable’ evils that provoke such a lethal response. The book is the story of one man, a step by step chronicle of the development of the school shooter’s thinking. It is also the story of everyone who has ever watched, with horror, the terrible aftermath of a school shooting and asked themselves, why? Extensively illustrated with images that reflect the horror of increasing mental isolation, the book offers, not only understanding, but also provides hope for those slipping through society’s cracks.

      Exploring Concepts, Lived Experience and Implications for Practice

      by Damian Milton

      Despite its wide impact on a range of disciplines, the concept of neurodiversity is often poorly understood. This can lead to uninformed debate and tensions regarding service provision. This edited reader brings together work from pioneering figures within and beyond the neurodiversity movement to critically explore its history, the concepts that have shaped it, lived experiences, and how a more informed understanding might translate into better practice and service provision.

      The Behavior Code

      A Practical Guide to Understanding and Teaching the Most Challenging Students

      by Jessica A. Minahan, Nancy Rappaport, MD

      The Behavior Code unlocks a wealth of proven practices to help teachers, counselors, and parents identify the messages underlying challenging student behaviors and respond in supportive ways.The authors—a behavioral analyst with expertise in special education and a child psychiatrist—guide readers through their FAIR Behavior Intervention Plan, a systematic approach to decoding the causes and patterns of difficult behaviors and developing effective measures to address them in schools. They demonstrate how the FAIR Plan can bring about positive change, even with students who exhibit anxious, withdrawn, oppositional, or inappropriately sexualized behaviors.Drawing on developments in cognitive science and educational psychology, the authors begin with a simple premise: all behavior is communication. Crucially, the first step of their FAIR plan is to discover the function (F) of a student's behavior. They encourage the use of nonjudgmental curiosity aided by standard data collection methods such as antecedent, behavior, and consequence (ABC) studies. The authors then give readers the tools to look beyond behaviors to implement targeted accommodations (A), interaction strategies (I), and appropriate response strategies (R). As they guide readers through their framework, they offer ample case studies, accessible worksheets, and focused thought exercises that allow readers to fully understand and implement suggested strategies.This thoughtful and empathetic approach can shift the balance from reactive to proactive classroom management, fostering meaningful teacher-student relationships and reducing the need for school discipline. Taken together, FAIR practices equip educators to support students in building the skills they need to access their higher-order brain functions more consistently and maintain a ready-to-learn mindset.

      Hubo fiestas

      by Álvaro Luquín

      Salir a buscar la fiesta es salir a buscar ciertos olores, ciertos tipos de cicatrices. Las fiestas son el terreno de lo impredecible, ese lugar al que vas con la esperanza de que pase algo: un trago, un beso, un toque, una línea, una pelea. Entrar es un acto de fe, un salto al vacío, hacer fila para electrocutarse. Una fiesta encierra la posibilidad de mitificar al mundo, de crear nuevos códigos, inestables y volátiles, sí, pero válidos durante el periodo histórico en que la fiesta ocurre. Cuando todo termina, lo que se queda contigo es el sonido vacío de los envases de cerveza, el olor a vómito, el dolor de cabeza, la aplastante sensación de que el espectáculo debe continuar.
