Children with autism can learn to read when they are taught using pictures matched with words.
Children with autism do not always speak and therefore it can be hard to know when they are reading. Previous studies have shown that children with disabilities focus too much on pictures if pictures are on the same page when they are trying to read. This study looked at whether it was easier to teach a child with autism to read using picture-text pairs or using words without pictures. The teachers were teaching sight reading and were not teaching the child to âsound outâ words.
