[quote=Anonymous]Yes, it gets better. And there are some easy things you could try: --State commands in the positive. Your post has several "don'ts". Instead it of "Don't get up until you're finished," say "Show me a clean plate first and then you can get up from the table." --If she does wander away from the table, call her to come near you and calmly say "Remind me what the direction was." "Sit down and follow it." --Set her up for success. If you don't want her using that eraser, simply move it somewhere out of her reach. If you want the paper in the backpack, first say, "Larla, bring you backpack to the table." THen direct her to put the paper in the backpack. --Ask her to repeat directions back. [/quote]
