Name three successful strategies used for working with autistic children

What will be an ideal response?


Any three of these: Avoid long strings of verbal language. Make language short and succinct.Many autistic children are good at computer skills, drawing, and art, so encourage these skills. Use fixations to teach—for example, if a child likes trains, use trains to teach the child how to count or to read. Use visual objects and other visual methods to help teach a child about numbers and number concepts. Be sensitive to sounds in the surrounding environment; many autistic children and adults are sound sensitive. Some autistic children are bothered by fluorescent and other types of lighting, so be aware of this. Some autistic children sing better than they speak, so singing instructions or other types of information to them may improve their understanding.
