7. Big Idea
Students with autism can
learn. It is up to us to
figure out the best way to
teach them.
8. Strategies for Learning
Differences
Many students with autism understand better by
seeing than hearing something. When possible, use a
picture or written words.
Actual objects mean more than photographs or line
drawings for some.
They may have great memory for numbers, facts,
directions, but they may have a hard time retelling
events. Use pictures or reminders to help remember
past events.
9. Strategies for Learning
Differences
Skills learned in one place may not be used in a new place.
May have to teach the skill in each place it is used.
The student may not learn by watching others. We may
have to teach them by going through each step. A list of
steps can be helpful for some tasks.
10. Strategies for Learning
Differences
It might take longer for them to think
through what was said before they are able to
respond. Give them time.
They might not even see why they should
respond. Prompt them to respond.
Some days it may be harder to concentrate or
the student may be more stressed making it
harder to think and learn.
11. Big Idea
Visuals help with learning.
This can be objects,
pictures, or written words.
