After
learning about Autism, and understanding students who have Autism struggle with
communication skills, I wanted to give examples of ways these students could
express their needs to others through the use of different communication cards.
The first
example is of break cards. These cards are used for communicating that they
need a break. With Autistic students they are not able to verbally request a
break, so they use these cards to express their need for a break. Many students
with Autism get irritated and show negative behavior, because they are unable
to express themselves. Having these break cards in close proximity of the
student at all times will allow then to request a break, before a negative
behavior can occur.
