Functional communication and replacement language are important skills to work on with learners. But are you incorporating teaching appropriate protests into your FCT teachings?
Most experience free choice in our environments. If we don’t like some something, we can usually speak up for ourselves. But our learners can’t always tell us this, and they should be able to without using challenging behavior. Everyone has the right to communicate. Here, we cover appropriate protests and some of the best ways to include this skill in our programs.
We discuss the reasons why teaching appropriate protests is so important and how to break down our teaching into multiple steps. We also talk about the different ways to teach appropriate protesting, recording triggers, and how to teach learners how to tolerate situations where “no” isn’t an option.
