Description

Teachers enter the classroom with a myriad of responsibilities and can easily become overwhelmed by all that is asked of them. One of the greatest concerns they may encounter is how to meet the needs of all of the students they have at the same time, specifically in the area of reading instruction. If the school district happens to practice inclusion, the needs of their students become much more diverse. The purpose for this study was to address this dilemma with regards to one disability in particular, Autism. In the last year, the prevalence of children diagnosed with Autism increased substantially, justifying the need for research. From this, the research question developed; what are the best practices for teaching children with Autism to read in an inclusive classroom setting? To discern answers to this question, a research site that works solely with students with Autism was chosen. The administrators and teachers at this school, who guide and instruct these students on a daily basis, were utilized as participants to gain valuable data from a variety of perspectives. The process of data collection was done through an interview, surveys, and a number of observations. Upon completing these elements, the data were coded, tallied, and compiled within tables and charts. From these data emerged recommendations in five areas of reading; phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. These data also included suggestions around reading instruction in four areas; environment, behavior, communication, as well as materials and resources. From this study, teachers in all classrooms including students with Autism can gain valuable insight into their educational practices involving reading instruction.
