write out a clear schedule? it could be that this person has poor situational awareness or just lacks experience so needs written out guidelines on what exactly you need them to do. ie, during so and so time, engage with so and so students at this particular center. or spend 5 minutes with one group engaging them in play or assisting them with work and then rotate to another. or, if anyone is struggling with this specific skill, help them, and then continue walking around and observing the students to see if anyone else is struggling with this specific skill.

I have a young student with CVI and extremely limited mobility. She is able to vocalize but not speak. However, I’ve seen her response and mannerisms change (positively) in the presence of parents and siblings which leads me to believe that she is cognizant enough to possible use a communication device. However, I don’t even know where to start with researching the best one for her. Any suggestions?
