ABA Therapy Curriculum and the Skills We Teach
What We Teach
Each child that we serve receives a program that is tailored to meet his or her individual needs.
Each child that we serve receives a program that is tailored to meet his or her individual needs. Prior to starting treatment, we conduct a comprehensive assessment of your child’s skills and challenging behaviors to create his or her individualized program. We incorporate lessons to work on skill deficits in areas such as communication, social, play, and academic skills as well as lessons to address daily living skills, perspective taking, self monitoring, problem solving, classroom skills, and behavior management. This list is not exhaustive. If there is an area in which your child needs help or a skill your child needs to learn, we are here to design a treatment plan to meet your child’s needs.
ABI’s curriculum is comprised of several core areas. The number and type of teaching targets within each of these areas depends wholly on each child’s unique needs.
