This work presentes the results of a qualitative, applied and intervention research conducted with mothers, teachers and psychopedagogues of children with autism. That research, focused on the development of higher mental functions of two children, was done in the classroom and in other school environments, before and after four months of daily work. The analyses of the data were focused on two aspects: their opinion on the method created and applied by the researcher, and their perspectives on the children’s evolution after the intervention. The interviewees reported noticing the children's evolution in various mental functions and the reduction of some ASD symptoms after the intervention. Our data also point to the need of a work with children with autism from a perspective which encompasses all aspects of their development, avoiding repetitive and plastered activities
