]]> This is a question that is asked frequently when behavior intervention leans heavily on a visual component. Why are we emphasizing the use of visual supports, even for students who understand spoken language? Therapeutic intervention for emotionally, behaviorally, or developmentally impacted children should rely heavily on visual communication for several key reasons including; increased sense of stability, activated reward centers, predictability and clear expectations, and a clear path toward student independence.

]]> This article will present guidelines for using routines, and is helpful after reading one of the two seminal articles Important Things to Remember about Routines or Using Classroom Routines to Create a Therapeutic Brain Settling Effect.

]]> (For Comprehension Guides and Other Visual Feedback Programs)

Students who lack an understanding of the subtleties of routines will struggle to acquire independence with those routines until we can help them with a more complete comprehension of the nuances of the routine. Improving comprehension of the subtle, yet vital, aspects of the routine can be achieved by creating a brief written and illustrated manual or guidebook that reveals what some students miss and what they should try to do differently…
