About

For our younger learners (typically 2-5 years old) who need to develop basic verbal and social skills, we focus on what are called “verbal operants” in the ABA world. Those are the basic building blocks of language and include: “mands” – asking for something to meet a want/need “tacts” – labeling what they see around them) “echoic” – repeating what someone else says “intraverbals” – back and forth conversation “listener responding” – following instructions “motor imitation” – copying movements of others “visual perceptual” – matching, sorting, and aligning
