Daily intervention for high-functioning autism - structured teaching allows children to "predict the future" on their own

Many children with autism struggle to understand abstract, language-based tasks and instructional methods. In contrast, their visual spatial abilities are strong. Structured instruction leverages the strengths of children with autism in terms of visual and mechanical memory to help them develop relatively more challenging skills, including language, imitation, cognition, and socialization. Structured teaching usually visualizes and structures learning, socializing, communicating, and imitating tasks, so that children know the specific arrangements and how to complete the tasks. Visualizing a schedule, including showing pictures and text of daily activities in order of occurrence, helps children understand what is about to happen in teaching or tasks that need to be completed. In this way, children can "predict the future" on their own without the prompting of the teacher. When circumstances change, many children with autism get frustrated and sometimes even lose their temper. In fact, they refuse to change, not necessarily because they like what they are doing now, but because they don't know what awaits them next. Introducing schedule cues can reduce their anxiety and frustration, avoid tantrums, and improve their independence. Okay, parents who have questions above can pay attention to me, thank you.
