As ABA practitioners, we’re familiar with the terminology of FFCs, which stands for feature, function, and class. Here, we dive into what comes after we teach FFCs and how to assist learners who have a hard time with those “WH” questions. In many cases, we simply teach learners to memorize responses to these questions, but they don’t actually understand what they mean. When we then start to mix and vary questions, it sometimes causes confusion.
We discuss how language develops, the importance of comprehension, and why we need to teach across operants. Sometimes this approach takes a bit longer, but learners can really grasp what’s being taught instead of memorizing an answer. We cover how to handle error correction, how to utilize matching and visuals, and provide information on our upcoming webinar.
Want to go even further on teaching WH questions? Join us on Wednesday, December 6th at 12pm EST for our CEU event Beyond Rote Responding: The Progression of WH Questions.
