Autism & Literacy- Issues and Recommendations
Thursday, 1 December, 2022
This might annoy you—but the way you were taught to teach reading is almost certainly not rooted in science. Gasp. I know right?! This might end up being a part 1 (of 2, 3, or 10) episode because I could talk about this for years. In this episode we’re unpacking the literacy gap in students with autism. What I’m sharing is derived from research I’ve done for my doctoral program but hopefully I’ve done a decent job of making it relatable and easy to digest. You’ll learn about some of the biggest mistakes we’re making as educators, therapists and parents (in reading instruction) and get some of the context around literacy instruction in Ontario (and North America) and what I recommend for moving forward with science (not tradition). Spoiler—science drives friends 🤣 that actually makes this MUCH easier. Love the episode? 💙 Don't forget to connect on social, rate and review on your favourite podcast platform.
