Guest guest Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Dear Larissa, I really appreciate this, thanks. Tom has learnt tons from videos and so I’m delighted to get someone else’s recommendation. I’m going straight to Amazon to get a DVD.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Thanks I will do this. My daughter doesn't turn her pronouns round ie she says you for herself and I instead of you. She copies sentences in blocks. When she was about 13 I was able to teach her about pronouns as a sort of lesson and now she tries and will say "Well done, I got my pronouns right" when she has done. Also still gets them wrong when not remembering to change them.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Hi , Sherston also do ORT Stage1-5 software.My severly autistic son started to read and use the computer fluently because of these as eg " they looked at the elephant" and then he could click and hear a brilliant trumpeting sound which was hugely reinforcing.NinaEva family wrote: Thanks I will do this.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Hi Sally, I’ve just bought a VB dvd on tacting from difflearn. It tells you how to deal with this (pronouns) very simply and cleverly, in my humble opinion, but then again, I love VB.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 thank you. Could you send me a link? People keep talking about VB and saying good things about it and I had been going to try and find out about it.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Look at this www.vbcommunity.co.uk this has a couple of clips of vb in action. However you have to be aware that this kind of intensive table top teaching only lasts for a tiny bit of the session. Don’t take it as an example of how your sessions will look rather as an example of how successful they’ve been with the kid in the videos who’s been doing it for a year, apparently. (Tom’s been doing it for 9 months and is at a similar level). The sessions are actually loads of fun and very very child friendly. And look at www.difflearn.com for the shop and http://www.difflearn.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DRD%20431 & top=28 for the actual video Sara Re: [Autism-Biomedical- Europe] oxford reading tree Thanks I will do this.
