FW: Basic Course on DIR/Floortime - Online (Greenspan)   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #536 of 559 |

Thought I would pass this on. I a not a big fan of Floortime but it may be beneficial to some children even if it was not appropriate for my son. In our home it looked like me chasing him down and taking to myself. Applied Behavior Analysis, which I reluctantly tired directly after my attempted period of Floortime, yielded immediate results and for the first time David was required to respond with each and every request I presented. At first you help the child respond with ABA showing them what right looks like but very soon they get the idea “Oh this is what I do when I hear that”. They are motivated to learn at first for the sort of artificial positive reinforcements like food reinforcers and later accept more natural reinforcers like clapping and verbal praise and later you can also fade the frequency of reinforcements. ~Ronda
