Understanding how autistic children learn is the key to their teacher with the same intensity that teach you other children. This may seem like a simple idea, but autistic children learn differently that understanding autism itself is a must when teach you autistic children. By becoming educated in disorder, teachers can effectively learn to deal with autistic children and adults both in and out of the classroom, creating a world more understanding for everyone
Autistic children are often Visual thinkers. Thus teaching speaking is not totally effective. Teachers should combine images with words for the autistic child to understand the lesson. For example, if you teach on animals in the world, you must have a flash card with the word "mouse", saying that the word aloud slowly and distinctly, and show the child a picture of a mouse. Perhaps even to make a living mouse to present and explain. The names may be easier to teach autistic children, since verbs require measures and may be more difficult to illustrate. If you teach children with autism words such as "sit" or "stand", you must complete these actions when you teach the word. Also, due to the tendency to be Visual, autistic children are often unable to follow long terms of imprisonment. They cannot decipher the sequence and become confused. For example, drafting instructions can be very useful when which tests or quizzes.
As Visual thinkers, autistic children can often set on a particular object or image. If this is the case, try to integrate this object or a picture of lesson plans. If the child like flat, try to use aircraft for Visual elements everywhere where you can in the lesson. For example, when the teaching of mathematics, create problems of Word on plans for the interests of the child. Autistic children also tend to be artistic or musical, producing highly original drawings and showing above average ability, with instruments or voice. Side of the time in the day for the arts and encourage the activities enjoyed by children.
Autistic children may also have trouble writing because of the control on their hands and the movement. It's frustrating for the teacher and the child. To reduce the frustration, to allow the child to use a computer. If you do, make sure that the keyboard and the monitor are close as the child may have difficulty remembering what he or she typed in recently.
Being open to an autistic child to the best of your ability to teaching, you are not only give him the best opportunities in life, but you are also to be a good model for other children in the class. Do not allow an autistic child to the ruin of the learning experience for others, but rather to integrate its quirks into your lessons as much as possible. Creation of a free class of harm is the best gift you can give to this child.
