Break down tasks. Teach in smaller
components. Teach complex concepts over time one
component at a time. Use a variety of instructional supports,
from physical and verbal prompting to observational learning.
Instructional strategies and materials should be designed with the student’s own interests and strengths in mind.
Useful strategies for teaching students with intellectual disabilities include, but are not limited to the following techniques:• Teach one concept or activity component at a time.• Teach one step at a time to help support
memorization and sequencing.• Teach students in small groups, or one-on-one if
possible.• Always provide multiple opportunities to practice
skills in a number of different settings.• Use physical and verbal prompting to guide correct
responses, and provide specific verbal praise to reinforce these responses.
