  Instructional Program 3 Situation in Which the Activity Will Be Taught: Mary will be taught within the context of her house kitchen. She will have a Swiffer Sweeper and Dry Clothes located next to the kitchen closet for five consecutive days. Since, Mary has trouble with her mobility skills it will be beneficial for her to have the Swiffer Sweeper already out of the kitchen closet. After any meal at home is over, Mary will be engaging in this task. This task will probably be taking place after dinner time. This task is independent unless her family members need the Swiffer Sweeper at the same time. In addition, any person or professional will be nearby if assistance is necessary. Instructional Format: Total Task Prompting Strategy: Most prompting (Most-Least) will be taking place, only because of the numerous amounts of steps to complete. Mary will have graduate guidance is most prompting with physical assistance. - Natural Cue Plus Controlling Prompts - Natural Cue Plus Less Intense Prompts - Natural Cue Plus Least Intense Prompts Motivation Strategy: - Completing the activity itself - Feedback from family members - Verbal praise

  Instructional Program 4 - Encourage Mary to reinforce herself for completing the task and for correction any errors herself - Rewards, such as more time to listen to music, and watch TV Other Creative Teaching Strategies: Because Mary likes helping her family, this activity will be most effective if she perceives that she is cleaning, sweeping and/or completing household chores that everyone in the house contributes to, now including Mary. Through completing this task, Mary has established a sense of helpfulness to the family and the household. Data Collection System: Frequency recording will be collected on Mary’s progress. A chart is attached to record and visually see when recording the information observed of each step, including if the step was done correctly or incorrectly. A key is also present on the chart to refer to when scoring. Generalization Strategy: - Try Mary on using another type of Swiffer, such as the Swiffer Max or the Swiffer Sweeper Vac. - Point out the similarities and differences between the different machines and how they operate. - Try Mary on using the Swiffer Sweeper in another room of the house, such as the bathroom, and any other room with non- carpeted floors.
