Routines for Neurodivergent Learners & Families (Quarter 1)
Creating and putting routines in place at home is a great place to start for our learners. It creates predictability and some structure but also helps teach essential skills for day-to-day life. Let’s go over how to create routines, put them in place and support our learners along the way.
Beyond the Behavior Plan: Holiday Support
The holiday season is upon us and we’re getting ready to navigate all of the changes in routine. There’s no better time than now to put a plan together to support you and your learner to make the holidays a little more predictable & a little less worrisome.
Beyond the Behavior Plan: Transitions
As adults we are the facilitators of change in our home or environment. Sometimes this can make our learners feel out of control and unaware of what’s to come. Let’s build predictability!
Beyond the Behavior Plan: Visual Schedules
Visual schedules represent a way of visually displaying a specific sequence of events, steps, activities within a learner’s day.
Visual schedules are a really adaptable tool and can include many different ways of representing those daily tasks or steps.
Beyond the Behavior Plan: Reinforcement Schedules
Reinforcement schedules can be broken down into 2 larger categories; fixed and variable. These categories tells us in even greater detail how often the learner is receiving reinforcement while working on those replacement behaviors and skills.
