Autism Tool: Visual Aids 

Page 19

Tools that teachers can use in their classrooms for students with autism.

Visual Aids: Visual supports aim to improve communication for those on the autistic spectrum. 

​For many, these aids dramatically improve their quality of life and are largely successful. Once the student has been shown how to use the device, they are able to express needs and wants, as well as feelings that may have never been known before.    ​
