Identify two activities in your classroom daily schedule that happen consistently and identify the core vocabulary used at that time.
Begin setting the expectation that the user is working on the device at these designated times to make the implementation transition smoothly.
Communicate with other school staff and the student’s family to discuss what they can do to reinforce what and where you have started in the classroom to begin to provide a generalisation immediately for your device user.
As you become more familiar with the language, you will naturally begin using the device across more activities and areas of the academic environments.
