Schedule and Order....
How come you ask us to come at 9am and you come at 10?
This was asked by an employee with Autism to his boss; the boss may have gotten annoyed but as the staff was oriented towards the modalities of these individuals, the statement was taken easy.
Does it not make us learn a lesson?
Yes, it does!
Also, this liking for order could be used as a strategy to teach concepts.
I would like to share my own experience...
When my son was only a six year old child, he was asked to get his Q&A done as the homework. He needed my help.
To answer one of the questions, I wrote the answer on a line, reached till the end and made a spelling mistake, cut the word and wrote on the top of the cut word and continued till the answer was complete.
My son did exactly the same.
Lesson learnt- The educator or the parent must be thorough in his or her method of teaching or training.
