Autism Spectrum Disorder
To make sure the student grasps how to use and
organize daily schedules and planners
This strategy can be used by allowing a student to
use any planner they desire. You can give them the
freedom to pick, but when it comes down to the
content in the planner. You should double check it is
being used. Organizational skills are very important
for children with Autism spectrum disorder.
It should be used for a student with ASD that has
trouble organizing their information and often
forgets assignments or tasks expected of them.
This passage can be used in a Social Studies class to
help student follow along with the content.
1. Demonstrate how to effectively use the
planner.
2. Supervise the child who is required to use
the planner for classroom activities
Who: ASD students can easier follow along
with what is going on in class if they have a
place to visual what is coming next.
When: when you feel the childs,
organizational skills are not where they
should be.
Where: in classroom time, you can have a
one on one with the student to ensure their
understanding.
Why: so, the student can be better organized
and get work done in a timely manner.
3. Check the planner frequently to ensure the
understanding and effectiveness of the
planner.
4. One the child is consistent with using the
planner then give them the freedom to use
and work on their organizational skills.
After a couple weeks of using the planner I could
assess and see if the planner has made any
 difference in the amount of work turned in. If there
is a significant difference, then I know the planner
was helping the student follow along and identify
what is needed next.
