What is My Child's
Treatment Day Like?

Your child’s daily schedule is comprised of a mixture of contrived and naturalistic teaching to facilitate communication with a structured and scientific teaching methodology.  The Shape of Behavior uses a scientific treatment approach based upon the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis. 

Your child learns to function with distraction by sharing a treatment room with 2-4 other children.  Group activities such as circle time to facilitate school readiness and social skills are incorporated into every session. 

Your child has their own instructional trainer to maximize their learning potential.

Time with typical peers is included throughout the week for our preschool children.  Learning from and with typically developing children is a vital part of your child success.

What About the Curriculum?
Shape of Behavior doesn’t believe in forcing your child into a curriculum, instead, we believe in recognizing each individual’s strengths and weaknesses as well as learning style and custom creating a curriculum to build areas your child is weak in and challenge them in the areas they strive in.  Motivation is constantly assessed during teaching to help your child’s achieve maximum potential.

The general curriculum covers 25 areas of language and learning including but not limited to motivation, visual, imitation including fine and gross motor, verbal, academic, social, and self-help skills.   

SkillsStreaming and Video Modeling to teach social skills are incorporated into your child’s treatment day to foster independent social interaction.  Naturalistic teaching trials are practiced daily to enhance generalization of these skills.

Independent Leisure activities are incorporated into every day.  Your child will learn some form of self monitoring and independent skills such as an “activity schedule.”  This will foster independent learning which can be transferred into your home.

Self help skills are incorporated into the daily curriculum along with fine and gross motor development activities.  The Shape of Behavior uses a progression of fine motor tasks developed by an occupational therapist to prepare young children for handwriting.  Ask us about our recreation therapy class offered on site!
