A 12-week curriculum with visual prompt was developed and task organization for these children to learn the numerical concepts. The results were as follows: 1. The designed curriculum has shown positive effects on learning numerical concepts for the subjects; furthermore, these two children have demonstrated maintained effects after the treatments. 2. The improvement of children’s learning ability suggested that the structured environments established in the study could facilitate instructors to teach numerical concepts for young children with autism. Finally, suggestions for teaching autistic young children’s numerical concepts and future studies, based on the results and limits of this study were discussed.
