7 Remember… Keep language simple Don’t talk too much Comment – don’t question or command Teach specific words that are important to the child

8 Remember… Create a need for communication: Find something the child really wants Put it out of reach but in sight Teach the child to make a sound, say a word, use a gesture, or give a picture to get what he wants

9 Help the Child Practice Following Directions

10 Remember… Start with simple/important directions Always follow through once you give a direction Give the least amount of prompts

11 Remember… Use visual supports and structure Wait ! Always reinforce when directions are followed

15 If a person is not learning, the trainer has failed to teach. Marc Gold (1980)
