[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 591385"] My kids therapist said that even with high functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids that can read pictures are better. Its just that they think in pictures not words. It would be like trying to read a list in German when your first language is English. Even if you are fluent in German the English is still easier. What I do is have a dry erase boards with their schedules on it. I put the words on with a picture by it. Do you have an ipad? There are lots of apps for communication. I don't understand the people working with you not supporting other forms of communication. Even my very verbal kids know basic sign lang. It helps them start talking faster. [/QUOTE]
