The participant was a 9 yearold-female with autism. The research was carried out in a self-contained special education room in a public school. The dependent variables were the number of correct and error words on daily spelling tests. The results indicated that CCC was an effective program for teaching a young child with autism to spell. The participant¡¯s corrects increased and errors declined. These differences were statistically significant. The applicability of using cover, copy, and compare for young students with autism was discussed. %K autism %K young child %K public school classroom %K self-contained program %K spelling words %K corrects and error words %K ASD %U http://www.savap.org.pk/journals/ARInt./Vol.2(3)/2012(2.3-32).pdf
