Lesson Plan

Task Initiation Plan

Benjamin will begin a structured academic or play-based task within one minute of instruction, requiring no more than one verbal or visual prompt at 80% accuracy over three consecutive sessions, fostering independence in task initiation.

Timely task initiation is critical for Benjamin's independence, self-regulation, and academic engagement. Building this skill supports executive functioning, reduces frustration, and sets a foundation for lifelong organizational habits.
