Abstract
- The article looks at strategies for teaching physical education to autistic children. According to the article, it is important to establish a routine for the class and create a clear physical layout that contains visual cues and boundary markings. The article suggests having a clear and regular ending to the class, which could include doing a simple stretching routine. The article discusses visual schedules, alternative forms of communication, positive reinforcement, appropriate use of equipment, and how to prevent negative behaviors, simplify verbal directions, and deal with sensory sensitivity.
