Gear up for success: A three-tiered planning model for supporting learners on the autism spectrum is a 152-page guide that offers evidence-based practices for teachers who have students on the autism spectrum in their classroom. Using the analogy of the gears on a bicycle to explain the three-tiered model, the authors, all professionals working in the field of autism, offer support for educators looking to adjust the intensity of interventions used based on their students' needs.
The aim of the book is to offer a conceptual framework to help education teams plan for interventions through general, class-wide supports, targeted small-group interventions, and specially designed one-on-one support. Detail is given on how to adjust the intensity level of interventions using the Gear Up model depending on the environmental conditions throughout the school day. Each bicycle representation is well-described and thoughtfully interwoven into the discussion.
