Hi Campers! On this episode we welcome friend of the show Megan Ledoux MA, BCBA to discuss early intervention for teachers k-2nd grade. We talk about what it is like to conduct a study during the covid-19 pandemic, the importance of student teacher relationships and what kind of training do teachers receive related to ASD. We also share memorable experiences working in the field and answer the ever important campfire question: What steps would you take to help a child with ASD excel academically?
