Choice Cards

Autistic students need to be taught in different strategies than the traditional student.  Adaptations and accommodations are needed for these students.  Above are examples of choice cards used for autistic students.  These cards are meant to be used for assisting autistic children in every day life and class.  These can be simple cards as shown above or little more complicated.  There are many examples of this type of card.  These are very useful in understanding what is going on in the minds of these children.  Without these cards, teachers and adults would have to guess and learn to interpret these students in alternative ways.  These cards can be used with students with similar disabilities to autistic students.  I do not know much about autistic students, but I hope to learn throughout my teaching career.  These students are sometimes not given choices and this needs to change.
