It is important to remember that the ASD child needs the culture of the classroom to support the social values and social skills that (s)he is attempting to develop. (S)he needs to see other people using these skills, and (s)he needs to see the value and relevance of these skills as they apply to life in the classroom. Specific effort will need to be made to help the ASD child notice and understand as social values are being recognized. For more information about the nature of social functioning please see Description Of Social Functioning.
