Multisensory instructional approach leads to increased engagement, improved attitudes towards learning, improved information processing, and improved retrieval of learned information. The purpose of the present study was to examine the extent to which multisensory approach can be used to improve emergent literacy skills in children with autism disorder. 10 children between the aged seven, who attended a centre in Nasr City for children with autism participated in this study. To collect and analyse data, a "Code-related Skills Test" which had two parts--Book concepts (recognition of book cover, title, author, number of pages: 4 marks, one for each), and Letter knowledge (which had 14 letter to be recognized by the child)--was developed. Findings from this study indicated the effect of multisensory approach on improving emergent literacy skills in children with autism disorder.
