Chapter+5

Children with autism usually are visual and tactile learners, although many children are different and need to be taught based on their individual eduacation plans. It is important to incorporate many visuals into our teaching,(visual schedules, rules, behavior charts) when trying to teach our students to communicate with us. I also feel I should be using more simple concrete language with my students. I sometimes tend to overload my students with words when I should just be focusing on one or two main action words of what I want them to do. This will help the students become more focused on what we are trying to communicate to them.
