Abstract: This study presents research conducted with a group of five students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) aged between 3 and 7 years, attending a regular school and receiving support from Therapeutic Pedagogy and Hearing and Language.

This instrument was applied after each session, allowing the evolution of the program to be evidenced
