3.6 Combining Verbal and Non-Verbal Methods

Teaching Listener Responding to Children with Autism (Standard) Lesson 3: Getting the Learner’s Attention 3.6 Combining Verbal and Non-Verbal Methods
This is the open-access version of this module and your progress is not tracked or recorded

Sometimes you can combine a verbal and a nonverbal method of getting attention.  For example, you could say “Look” while running your finger across the array.  However, do NOT use more than one verbal and one nonverbal method of getting attention. And do NOT use all of them together. The more of these methods that we use together, the more muddled or overwhelming they may be for the learner.

It is essential to avoid repeating your verbal cues to get the learner’s attention.

only use one to gain attention as it can be overwhelming to the learner
