Inclusion - make it real
Penrith NSW Nov 1, 2019

Chris Newett and Ingrid Micallef attended this workshop in order to gain some more understanding of Inclusion best practice to support The Cubby storytime and The Calm Corner.
Inclusion – Making it Real
– Inclusive Story Time – Professional Development for Public Libraries
Friday 1st
November Penrith Council
Diagnosis – autism?
Barriers – how to manage
Early Connections –
collaboration
Keyword sign – Signbank
Challenges – demands on the
child. What can we change? Environment? Seating?
Booking – when booking add a
question – Do you need any help? Special needs?
We welcome …
Environment work for you
Raising Children Website
Chat first. Everyone has bad
days
Focus on child’s ability non
disability
Say …a child with
autism/downs syndrome …
Not… autistic child
Special needs? Additional
needs? Target group? Inclusive/exclusive
Support the child’s
individual needs.
Structure-framework-flexibility
Adapt
Not too much support –
confuse, distract. Even too much praise.
Use strategy that is broad.
Ask parent do they need support.
Behaviour- how to manage it
Profile – behaviour eg finds
it hard to concentrate, rocks back and forth.
Could say “he enjoyed that
song today”
Wait so the child can process
a song eg Twinkle Twinkle little star how I wonder what you are……pause…………….Up
above etc
Use visuals – glasses, hat
Prepare/explain/show/finish
Social story – photos/videos
Boardmaker Spectronics
Social impact UTS

Music is a great tool as it
helps develop language – it doesn’t teach language
Interest based learning
Repetition – less is more
Rhyme and rhythm
Narrative is important
Don’t talk/interrupt the
story too much – read it
Hanen
Siblings – give them a role
be inclusive.
