Abstract
This project is the development of a book to support parents of children with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who are attending or soon will attend a Preschool Special Day Class (SDC). Currently many parents do not know what to do or expect or anything about special education as they and their child begin their experience with a Preschool SDC and the special education system. This easy to read book will help parents to gain basic and beginning but important knowledge and understanding as to what everything means, what to expect and what to do to support both their child and staff. Information and sources of data for this project come from books, professional and peer reviewed journals and professional websites on Special Education, Early Childhood Education, Early Childhood Special Education and ASDs as well as the author’s personal experience working with parents of preschool age children with an ASD.
