Help explain social situations to your child, using Autism PowerPoint Templates.

Autism is a lifelong developmental disability that affects how a person communicates with, and relates to, other people. It can also affect how they see and experience the world around them. It is thought that 1 in 100 people are afflicted with this condition with around 700,000 sufferers in the UK alone. It’s a spectrum condition which means each sufferer is affected differently by Autism. Whereas some can lead relatively normal independent lives, other struggle with accompanying learning disabilities and need the constant help and support of others.

People with Autism struggle with verbal and non-verbal communication, which can make social situations very difficult. They can often find it challenging to understand facial expressions, tone of voice, jokes, common phrases and colloquial phrases. They can also find it difficult to understand other people’s emotions. This can cause a lot of distress as they may appear insensitive because they haven’t recognised how someone is feeling, or stray too close to inappropriate subjects. Maybe they will stand too close to someone, not understanding the unwritten rule about personal space, or react oddly to questions asked of them. This behaviour may come across as strange, and this may cause people to react badly to sufferers.

Some autism sufferers don’t like to interact with others at all, much preferring their own company. This can make the necessary task of interaction, that much more of a challenge. The inability to cope in new or unfamiliar situations, make it very difficult for everyone involved.

Templates for PowerPoint have been designed to help you explain social situations to autistic sufferers, particularly children. Personalised stories have been created in PowerPoint by the charity Autism Speaks and the University of Washington Autism Centre. These Autism PowerPoint Templates may be customised by parents, therapists or anyone involved in the autistic child’s care to help explain the lessons in a fun, interactive and easy to understand method.  These templates include Play Dates, Talking To Others and Keeping Clean, just to name a few.

There are also PowerPoint templates for parents, in which they can customise the Autism PowerPoint Templates to help them remember all the necessary information and phone numbers, appointments and medication, especially in the first few months of diagnosis.

The Templates for PowerPoint are fully editable, which means you can make major or minor adjustments with colours, fonts and themes, without undergoing any major hassle. With high quality graphical features like images, videos, charts and graphs, you can also create slides which are visually suitable for your child’s personal needs. These templates are a powerful tool for communication and are really helpful to anyone who is or wants to get attached to the topic. What better way to help your child adjust to the complicate world that they live in, than using PowerPoint templates designed to make their lives, and that of everyone around them, that bit easier.
