Here's wishing all a Great Teachers Day.

Children's parties have a lot of sensory stimulation as well as unfamiliar social norms, which children with autism can find overwhelming. Loud music, shouting and singing happy birthday all have the potential to cause sensory overload.

In this lesson, Block imitation, your child uses blocks to copy a structure that you create. This is important because the required skills overlap the domains of visual performance and object imitation.

While this lesson seems simple, it teaches a variety of useful skills, including:

Generalization of basic matching abilities

Development of visual discrimination abilities

Development of fine motor skills

The ability to use another person’s model as a guide to complete a task

The ability to modify behavior to model another person’s behavior

The ability to complete a multiple-step task in a sequenced order

Development of emerging building/construction skills that can be later generalized into play opportunities

Rolling and cutting activity for fine motor skills.

All in a day's work. 😆
