[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 470955"] Some of the things I do: Praise good behavior get down on their level to give instruction make sure I have their attention before giving instruction be close to them physically to give instruction with the 'I have to finish this first' I tell them it will wait for you. Then I put it where they can see it waiting. They get a shirt on. Then I give it back to them. I hold out two things and have them choose (speeds up things from having them choose out of the drawer) Sometimes they do sleep in their clothes for the next day. I can't get ready and get them ready at the same time. I have to get ready first. We have the same thing for breakfast everyday. If I get board of it I change it, but then we are having what I changed it to everyday (at least a few weeks). I have their morning schedule (drew pictures) on the white board so they can see it. (helps me remember the order of things too) I'm not picky if they decide to wear the snow boots without socks or when its not snowing. Sometimes we eat in shifts. Just less behaviors that way. Sometimes someone eats in the kitchen instead of with the rest of us. (Not a punishment, just sensory need) I count to 7 before repeating myself (slow processing speeds) or punishing I have a count down for time out. When I get to 1 its time out. I start at 2. This is very rarely used though. I use deep pressure to calm them down I work with them. Sometimes I have to do hand-over-hand to get them to work. Again rarely used. Good luck [/QUOTE]
