Objectives
At the end of this training, you will be able to
•define Opportunities to Respond/Practice
•describe strategies for Opportunities to Respond
•apply strategies for Opportunities to Respond
•illustrate how to develop adapted lessons
2010 Region 3 Education Service Center / Texas A&M University 2
Opportunities to Respond
• provide numerous opportunities to practice the target response
• require practice across days and activities using prompting and feedback
(Browder et al., 2008)

Approaches
• Skill acquisition
• Skill maintenance
• Skill generalization
• Adapted mathematics lessons and units

Research Evidence• Browder, et al. (2006)
– 13 out of 27 studies used the Massed/Discrete Trials instructional strategies
– This strategy has been used to teach a variety of math skills, such as addition (Baroody, 1996), counting and matching numbers (Kapadia and Fantuzzo, 1988), measurement (Karsh, Dahlquist, and Repp, 1994), and multiplication (Morin and Miller, 1998)
• Browder, et al. (2008)– The Opportunities to Respond strategy has been identified as one
of the evidence-based practices for teaching mathematics to students with significant cognitive disabilities

Skill Acquisition—Massed/Discrete Trials• A primary teaching method to teach students with
developmental disabilities
• Teaching a skill by repeating the same trial several times successively in a short period of time (CBASSE, 2001).
• Beginning with prompted trials, then using systematic prompt fading until the student can give the correct response independently
• Example—A flash card of a number 5 is placed in front of the student, and 10 repetitions are presented as, “Mike, what number is it?”
2010 Region 3 Education Service Center / Texas A&M University 7
Teaching Strategies for Massed/Discrete Trials• Break skill into the smallest steps
• Teach each step of the skill intensively until it is mastered (systematic instruction)
• Provide multiple opportunities for responding
• Prompt the correct response, and fade the prompts as soon as possible
• Use positive reinforcement procedures(http://www.autismtreatment.info/What+Is+a+Discrete+Trial.aspx)
2010 Region 3 Education Service Center / Texas A&M University 8
Massed/Discrete Trials ActivityTasks:• Teach locating points on a coordinate plane
– Present a student ordered pairs of whole numbers, such as (3, 6), and say “Find this point on the plane.” The student is taught to locate this point on a coordinate grid. Use constant time delay with verbal or modeling prompt.
• Teach number comparison– Ask for two numbers (through 20). The student is taught to use
marbles to represent these two quantities and compare them. The student will make a sentence by using “more than” (for example, “18 is more than 12”). Use the least-intrusive prompting strategy to teach. The hierarchy of prompts is (a) gesture, (b) verbal prompt, and (c) model and verbal prompt.

Activity #1
Maintenance and GeneralizationA learning process includes
• Acquisition
• Maintenance
• Generalization
2010 Region 3 Education Service Center / Texas A&M University 10
Maintenance
• Skill overlearning—fading reinforcement
• Distributed practice—scheduling matrix (Westling and Fox, 2000)
• Building on learned skills
• Using a maintenance schedule
2010 Region 3 Education Service Center / Texas A&M University 11
Scheduling Matrix• Identify individualized goals within the general
curriculum
• List events of the school day for the student
• Check the event in which the skill can be taught

Approaches
• Skill acquisition
• Skill maintenance
• Skill generalization
• Adapted mathematics lessons and units

Generalization• Teaching functional skills and using in vivo instruction• Multiple Exemplar approach—use varied materials and
activities to teach the same skill• General Case approach
– Define the instructional goal– Define the variation of stimuli and responses– Select differential exemplars– Vary other features– Teach one set of exemplar, and probe the others; teach until
mastery• Stimulus equivalence—if a = b, and a = c, then b = c and c
= b

Approaches
• Skill acquisition
• Skill maintenance
• Skill generalization
• Adapted mathematics lessons and units
2010 Region 3 Education Service Center / Texas A&M University 16
Adapted Math Lesson/Unit Plans• Two traditional curricular approaches
– Remedial curricular approach—teaching prenumber skills and basic numeracy skills from the beginning, regardless of grade level
– Functional approach—teaching functional skills and ignoring numeracy skills
• Promoting access to the general curriculum (recommended)—dual instruction approach
– Using systematic instruction to teach skills needed to acquire numeracy skills within typical grade-level math activities and concepts
– Teaching functional academic skills

Activity #3
Planning an Adapted Lesson Simon is a seventh grader with autism and moderate intellectual disabilities. He has speech impairments and is learning to use an augmentative alternative communication (ACC) device. With limited prior exposure to mathematics instruction, he can compare single-digit numbers by using a number line.
In seventh-grade general math class, students need to learn how to compare integers—according to the TEKS 111.23.Grade7.(b)(1)(A), “compare and order integers and positive rational numbers.” Using the activity sheet on the second page, draft an adapted lesson plan for Simon.
