Here is an example of a basic set of instructions that a student might practice and then refer to, just before he enters a situation where he is likely to initiate or respond to a greeting:
What visual reminder cues should be present to support rehearsal as well as maintenance of this skill? Should these be posted on the wall, taped to the individual’s work space, or kept in his pocket?
Here is an example of a visual cue that identifies some of the verbal and non-verbal features within a greeting exchange:
What cues might I add to the environment to support performance?
Is it necessary to integrate any other visual cues into the physical learning environment to clarify expectations and to ensure successful practice and role-play opportunities? For example, does the student need a small piece of tape, or sticker, placed on the floor to signal appropriate physical distance to maintain during a greeting or goodbye rehearsal?
What cues might I add to emphasize key verbal and non-verbal elements within the exchange? How can I direct the student’s attention to other contextual elements that might guide appropriate initiations and responses?
In order to align this intervention topic area with the unique needs of the student, do you need to create visual instructions and reminder cues in the View2do program?
