 General Info & Proactive Approaches
 SIVA philosophy and approach – relationship is key!
 Behaviours viewed through lagging skills and unmet needs lens
 Development of consistent and predictable routines using visual schedule to guide – prime for changes, transitions
etc.
 Consistent pairing of visual supports with verbal to support comprehension
 Structure tasks and activities with clear beginning, middle and end
 Make all expectations explicit and concrete
 Modify and adapt curriculum/expectations to ensure tasks and activities are realistic but meaningful
 Intentional approach to regulation:
o Ensure consistent snack and water opportunities throughout day
o Embed proactive breaks times into daily schedule and implement
o Always look for early signs of dysregulation (see yellow and orange above) and ensuring immediate and
effective responses as per clinician recommendations
o Ensure multiple sensory items and tools visible, accessible and being utilized
o Regulation takes as long as it takes - signs of recovery need to be present (see below) before re-
engaging
