Answer to Question 1

Any three of these: Avoid long strings of verbal language. Make language short and succinct.Many autistic children are good at computer skills, drawing, and art, so encourage these skills. Use fixations to teachfor example, if a child likes trains, use trains to teach the child how to count or to read. Use visual objects and other visual methods to help teach a child about numbers and number concepts. Be sensitive to sounds in the surrounding environment; many autistic children and adults are sound sensitive. Some autistic children are bothered by fluorescent and other types of lighting, so be aware of this. Some autistic children sing better than they speak, so singing instructions or other types of information to them may improve their understanding.

Answer to Question 2

The families' parenting skills may be more limited if they spend the great majority of time providing physical care for their children with disabilities and other special needs. As their children participate in early childhood education environments and these families observe the role modeling of the teacher, they can hone their parenting skills and feel more like typical parents than they had previously felt. Families provide the emotional connection to the children that can help the teacher interact to a greater degree with both the children and the families. Teamwork and cooperation are essential to provide the greatest number of opportunities for these children to grow and develop to their highest potential.
