Synopsis

Color, shape and size are three very visible characteristics of the world around us. As we look around, our minds are observing and categorizing green grass, big trees, small flowers, square windows, brown rectangle buildings, blue sky and white clouds. Color, shape and size are ways children notice and categorize what they see. These very familiar features enable children to interpret and organize the varied world around them. Understanding, colour, shape and size are essentials which children need to know in order to master Reading, Writing, Language and Maths. Furthermore, it is a tool for learning many skills in all subject areas. However, for autistic children who are mostly visual thinkers and learners, color, shape and size can be used to create learning steps, helping them to pick up words and concepts, and develop basic skills. Ultimately, the goal is to motivate the child to develop better verbal communication skills.

About this title

About the Author

Inspired by the often exciting highly imaginative conversations, sharp witted and entertaining anecdotes of the teenage students whom she educated during a long and successful professional teaching career, which included varying educational leadership posts, Alexis V turned her penmanship from marking assignments to a more electrifying pursuit, fiction writing and more recently concept children’s books. Alexis V writes from her study while overlooking a beautiful green and tranquil tree-lined field which supports her creative thought. She enjoys cooking, reading and riding a tandem bicycle with her husband, who obviously sits at the front! She lives in Suffolk, UK, is married and has two adult daughters.
