Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 I have a nine year old moderately autistic son. I am trying to teach him to read. What is the best method to teach? Phonetic or Sight Words? With the Phonetic method he does not seem to understand the concept of blending the sounds of the letters to form words. He has learnt a few Sight Words. But then I wonder how many words can a child learn using the Sight method. Parents, educators, please let me know your experience.
