No single method for teaching students with autism is successful for all
students. Also, students’ needs change over time, making it necessary for
teachers to try other approaches. This chapter contains information
about important areas of instruction and instructional approaches that
have proved successful for teachers working with students with autism,
including suggestions from the literature on autism. The chapter is
divided into five sections:
• Instructional approaches
• Strategies for classroom management
• Strategies for communication development
• Strategies for teaching social skills
• Teaching functional skills
