Mobile App Monday - ABA Receptive Identification


Today on Mobile App Monday, we'll take a look at an app that helps children on the spectrum with identification of items by way of their "class."

According to the app's description, "many children with emerging language skills do not think of things as having parts, attributes or fitting into categories but these are necessary for developing appropriate, functional conversation skills. Once a child can ask for, label and receptively identify a great many items, it’s a good time to start teaching the FFC’s or rather features, function and class of items, people and places. These lessons teach a child to talk about things rather than just labeling them."
