My Project

I work with students with autism in a moderate/severe class. We are always working on communication and one of the most successful ways to encourage my students to communicate is through requesting their favorite snacks during snack time.

We also use our favorite snacks such as fruit snacks, chips, popcorn, and Taki's as reinforcement upon completing difficult or new tasks that we are working on.

Additionally these items help my students to work on life skills as they are requesting snacks, getting necessary items for snack (plates, utensils, napkins, etc.) and then practicing cleaning up our area afterwards with disinfectant wipes and throwing items away.

I hope you consider helping us work on our communication and life skills!
