Floor Time Method Print this page Save this page
This strategy may be incorporated into your program but it generally is not the primary method of educating an autistic child. Follow the child's lead and help him develop interaction and communication skills. Imitate the action which then encourages the child to develop more complex play schemes and incorporate words and language into play. With its strong emphasis on emotional development, the Floor Time Method may be a natural complement to a behavior teaching program such as Applied Behavior Analysis.
