Phase
V – Responding to “What do you want?”
Objective:
The
student can spontaneously request a variety of items and can answer the question
“What do you want?”
Training
Procedures:
|
at
this phase, the student can initiate requests independently using the
starter phrase “I want” followed by a picture of the desired item |
|
ideally,
the student has not yet been exposed to the prompt “What do you want?” |
|
it
is inevitable that people will continue to ask the student this; therefore,
this phase teaches the student how to respond to this prompt (by this phase,
the student may already be doing this) |
|
however,
it is extremely important that the student still be able to request most
things spontaneously, without being prompted |
|
you
should be able to move through this stage quite quickly |
