This two-part workshop provides caregivers with practical strategies to help their child learn new skills and participate more successfully in everyday routines. Participants will explore how clear communication, motivation, and supportive teaching strategies can create more effective learning opportunities at home. Caregivers will learn how to give clear and effective instructions by gaining their child’s attention, using simple language, and breaking tasks into manageable steps. The workshop will also introduce how reinforcement can increase motivation and encourage cooperation during learning activities. In addition, caregivers will explore how prompts and supports can help children practice new skills while reducing frustration. Strategies for gradually fading prompts to support independence will also be discussed. Through discussion and practical examples, caregivers will learn how these strategies can be incorporated into daily routines, play, and everyday activities. By the end of the program, caregivers will have practical tools to support learning, increase cooperation, and promote skill development in natural home and community settings.
