Welcome

Centering on Children is dedicated to providing creative learning activities for autistic individuals or those with learning disabilities who are beginning the process of “learning how to learn.”

Bullseyesmall.jpgShoeboxTasks® provide the opportunity for children or adults who need a high degree of structure to experience success and build upon that success for greater skill and independence.

Developed by Ron Larsen, working as an autism therapist with the TEACCH program, these Tasks have proven to be an educational breakthrough for otherwise uninspired learners.

Task17.jpgParents, teachers and clinicians find that ShoeboxTasks encourage focus and successful completion of goals that build a framework for continued learning and esteem building for autistic and learning disabled students.

Feedback

Just wanted to drop a quick "hi" from up north.  This is Mike Walker--used to work with A. at your workshop.  I wanted to let you know that I am so glad to have the ShoeboxTasks in my classroom up here.  I have two severely challenged guys who excel with the tasks and even the more mildly challenged guys request them as special activities.  I ordered all of the second set and the two other classrooms each ordered basic curriculums.  I appreciate all of the help and information I amassed working with you and I am now able to use it daily in my autism support classroom here in Philly.  Hope all is well.  Congrats on the new tasks.....they look awesome.  Mike Walker
