Guest guest Posted August 15, 2001 Report Share Posted August 15, 2001 Ok gang, so I tried to take it easy this summer with Kenzie. Lot's of manding and a little sprinting. We got to the point where he didn't even want to do shake fluency sprints, let alone any verbal behavior. Receptively, he seems to be doing quite well. With fall and the new school year coming around, I'm really ready to crack down again. Nothing I try seems to click whether it's fun or work, so I might as well try to make him work. I'm wondering if any of you have used activity schedules to break down your DTT. I just started a few days ago using an activity schedule much like a TEACCH format. I made it EXTREMELY EASY AND BASIC. I only used three pictures for any kind of work. He's doing pretty well with it but there's no verbal behavior. I'm using it to try to teach some independent activities. I'm going from " Activity Schedules for Children with Autism " . Anyhow, how could you show an example of the various verbal behaviors with pictures? I can see how you could do matching and maybe tacting and imitation but how would you do receptive, IV, etc? Has anyone tried this and has it proven successful and easier for the child to prepare and focus? I still have constant problems with his verbal stimming and tuning me out. As always I would appreciate any suggestions. I need to get motivated to get a real program going again. I'm on my own for a while. My consultant just had her first child a week ago.
