Evidence-based practices for teaching young children with ASD?
Behavioral Intervention – Prompting– Reinforcement– Task analysis and chaining– Time Delay– Discrete trial training– Naturalistic Interventions– Parent implemented
intervention– PECS– Pivotal Response Training
Positive Behavior Support– Functional Behavior
Assessment– Stimulus control– Response interruption and
redirection– Functional Communication
Training– Extinction– DRO/DRA/DRI– Structured work systems– Visual supports

What does engagement look like for children?
![Page 7: Play with Me! Valerie Read, M.Ed. valerieread@gmail.com Gina Easterly, Ph.D., CCC-SLP gina.easterly@la.gov](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022033101/56649d005503460f949d1f5b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Children learn best when they are engaged and interacting with a communication partner.– Play helps engagement and interaction
• Children are more likely to be engaged and learn language while doing activities they enjoy.
• When the adult plays with the child at his or her level, the adult optimizes the opportunity for communication to occur.
Why Play?
