Homeschooling  with Autism

The enjoyment and appreciation of music can be explored in a variety of different ways. Music can help gain listening skills and following instructions.  It promotes hearing words and sounds through intonation.  It can also be used to elaborate language skills.  Music can promote physical activities such as dancing or relaxing.  It can also release stress and invoke emotions.

 

Try to incorporate music and easy to play musical instruments into your homeschooling for a variety of sensory sounds.  This can be a simple blow horn, a piano or small drums.  Songs are always good to sing or listen too and help along the homeschooling process. You can focus on reading familiar and unfamiliar song texts.
