School Readiness

You’d be hard pressed to find any parent that doesn’t worry about their child’s first day of school, and this is certainly no exception for parents of children on the autism spectrum. At Springtide we put a strong focus on school readiness to ensure the children we support are ready for this next important step in their development.

What School Readiness Does to Help

School Readiness can be as direct as setting up a pretend classroom and going through each of the situations a child might find themselves in, similar to a social story. However, many of the skills necessary for success in school, including social skills and communication, can be taught through everyday, play-based interaction, as we do in our centers.

School Readiness can work on areas such as:
Staying seated during academic tasks.
Participating in group activities with other students.
Sticking with a task until completion.
Paying attention and following instructions.
Standing in a line with other students.
Awareness of others and their personal space.
Independent and group play skills.
Learning in an environment with distractions.
Transitioning to tasks that are not preferred.

Springtide's Model

Our goal at Springtide is for our clients to be prepared for whatever comes next in their lives. To do this, we make sure that we are teaching an understanding of the skills and situations they are learning, rather than simply memorizing when to perform certain actions or use certain words. There is no greater test of this than when a client moves on to a new environment. Our therapists work one-on-one with each client to identify any deficits in understanding that may not translate well to the school environment, and quickly collaborate to include those skills in their individual plan and get them on track for the school session.

Our 360 Approach

Our 360 approach is what allows Springtide to be one of the most effective models for School Readiness programs. If a core issue affecting a child is not addressed, whether it be medical or social, the best programs will not be successful. Our trained therapists collaborating under one roof and working with client specialists are able to see the greater picture and have more success removing any challenges that may stand in the way of their current goals, including school readiness.
Many parents even opt to continue working with ABA after-school to continue classroom-readiness therapy. Our 360 approach allows us to support the client’s teachers and aides along with their family as they grow and move forward in their schooling. Springtide is the partner for our clients and their families throughout their whole journey, no matter where that may take them.
