Break activities down into chunks
Time individual activities

what you expect them to have done by then

What do we know? Help the child to identify facts.
What can we predict? Why might he be going
carefully? What is most likely?
Are we right?

Modelling the correct use of language and correcting
their verbal errors
Give them plenty of time to respond
Provide task management sheets so that they (or you)
can break down the task
Encourage mind mapping
Writing frames
Encourage all forms of communication
Don’t finish their sentences
Use a variety of questions or comment on what they say
rather than question
