As or individualized education plans are often focused on the much-needed core educational requirements your child with special needs. It is very important that you part of this process and your input as also offer. Because the piano is fun and educational it can be a great way to motivate your child with autism. Here are five reasons to consider this:
(1) It's fun!

(2) It is educational!
The piano requires you to focus. This time to teaching material can be increased gradually and benefit other educational programs. If your child learns, this music is also closely read others reflects skills classic read and writing programs.
(3) Promotes the recording.
While the most as and all public education programmes include more traditional subjects such as math, the choice is not so often playing the piano. This makes it possible for your child relationships with other peers music-minded and show something common. These opportunities can find by the social groups and/or musical activities such as performances to develop these links.
(4) Helps the generalization.
Piano, similar to traditional educational topics that must be practiced and reviewed also at home. Students with autism often have difficulty relating to generalization. Add an other skill that can be brought home and developed; in a new environment, with different materials (i.e. a different keyboard/piano) and taught by another teacher, all promoting your child's help to generalize ability, what they learn.
(5) Develop fine motor skills.

The piano playing to learn gradually increase these capabilities by introducing the concepts such as correct fingering and play with both hands. In the use of ABA style statement can these techniques interrupted be introduced down and 'errorlessly'. While learning the fundamentals of the piano often straight forward, can the degree of difficulty development grow with your child and endless challenges and opportunities for fine-motor.
The piano offers all of these things, and although some students are not teaching in adulthood into next, it can open doors for other fun and challenging areas.
