Motivate to Communicate!: 300 Games and Activities for Your Child with Autism
Autor Simone Griffin, Dianne Sandleren Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 noi 2009
Considerăm Motivate to Communicate! o resursă esențială pentru nivelul de licență în pedagogie specială și psihologie, dar și o referință profesională indispensabilă pentru terapeuții logopezi. Remarcăm rapiditatea cu care formatul prietenos permite accesul la cele peste 300 de activități, structurate nu doar ca simple jocuri, ci ca instrumente de intervenție bazate pe 40 de ani de expertiză clinică cumulată a autoarelor.
Descoperim aici o progresie logică, de la capitolul introductiv despre preferințele senzoriale ale copilului, până la secțiuni aplicate precum „Motivați-mă cu mâncare” sau „Jocuri sociale”. Această organizare permite utilizatorului să identifice exact stimulul care rezonează cu profilul senzorial al copilului, transformând activități banale — cum este suflatul baloanelor de săpun — în exerciții de numărare sau coordonare motrică. Comparabil cu Speak, Move, Play and Learn with Children on the Autism Spectrum în rigurozitate, volumul de față se distinge prin concentrarea masivă pe motivația intrinsecă și pe utilizarea obiectelor pe care orice familie le are deja în casă.
În contextul operei autoarei Simone Griffin, acest titlu completează viziunea prezentată în Teach Me With Pictures. Dacă lucrarea menționată anterior se baza pe suport vizual, Motivate to Communicate! extinde arsenalul terapeutic către interacțiunea fizică și socială, oferind strategii pentru a crea oportunități de comunicare pe tot parcursul zilei, nu doar în sesiuni structurate de terapie. Tonul este unul pragmatic, eliminând jargonul teoretic în favoarea unor instrucțiuni clare care facilitează progresul de la gesturi simple la comunicare verbală.
