That is, children with autism report exactly what they see and know but miss what someone else might think, know, or believe (Baron-Cohen et al., 1985). The activities in this book will dramatically improve your students' ability to infer and predict behavior, take another person's perspective, and understand his intentions in step-by-step lessons.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eChildhood is flush with stories and games that develop ToM.
