How does it effect the child?

Autistic children are most often visual learners.

Their normal development of social and communication skill are effected and delayed.

Being in a classroom with other students can be a distraction, but it depends on the individual.

Symbols

Teachers can use these with their students to better communicate with them.

Small pictures or symbols, cut out individually, represent words.

Students can use these to create sentences or ideas, make to-do lists, and read stories.

We would use these websites because they give teachers good ideas on how to use and create the symbols with their autistic students.
