Conflicts of Interest and Disclosure
We will share many different strategies and/or resources in which we have no affiliation with. These are strategies and tools we have used and found to be successful. We do not work for any of the companies.
With that said, since visual strategies is one of the evidenced based strategies we will be covering, Mo put together over 495 visuals that are mostly PDF and/or JPEG and placed them all on a CD that she typically sell as a great resource (that is usually $20) and she can sell today for $10 at the end of this session if you are interested.

Frequent opportunities should be provided for students to make
choices throughout the day and in all contexts as a means of
encouraging communication.
Choices
Choices can be provided visually or verbally.
“Which one would you like to work for?”
WHAT ELSE?????
Power of Choice
Instead of saying “you have to do your math”…..say “do you want to do 3 math problems or 5 math problems?”Instead of saying “you have to clean up now”……say “do you want to clean now or when the alarm goes off?”
Instead of saying “you have to take a shower now” …..say “do you want to take a bath or a shower?”
