A professional observes the child playing with familiar toys and other available materials in a naturalistic environment  and caregivers may or may not participate. After all appropriate activities in each sequence have been observed or attempted  professionals and caregivers examine the strengths and weaknesses revealed during assessment  pinpoint items that need the most work  and select from the teaching activities that correspond to the items in each sequence of the Assessment Log.  CCPSN includes 22 logical teaching sequences  covering five developmental areas: personal-social  cognition  communication  fine motor  and gross motor. Curricular sequences each consist of an introduction that explains why that sequence is important; suggested adaptations for children with visual  motor  and hearing impairments; and a list of behaviors associated with that sequence. For each behavior  users get a criterion that pinpoints the objective  a list of suggested materials for eliciting that behavior  procedures that help  and functional activities for encouraging that behavior within the childs daily routine. This volume targets more advanced  age-appropriate behaviors and includes suggestions for group activities appropriate for preschools or child care centers.
