I have a similar issue with Nick. He frequently makes the sign for school and sounds out the word 'house'. The best option that has worked for us is a very small white board. I write out a very basic schedule on the board and we go through it together: i.e.<br /><br />School<br />Home<br />Lunch<br />iPad<br />Go out for a milkshake<br /><br />Doing something like this has been very helpful for Nick. If he continues to repeat, I will go over the board again... or remind him that we have already discussed what is going to be happening.<br /><br />Not sure if this will help your situation, but worth trying. Good luck.Bright Side of Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08025195022971411268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5005421880877128774.post-74170738443533385832016-06-04T05:16:46.601-07:002016-06-04T05:16:46.601-07:00Hi I am new to your blog.

I work in the classroom with a teenager who is autistic and is for the most part non verbal except for the repeated "Home at 2:00 OClock please. He repeats the phrase verbally, he writes the phrase all day and will take our hands to read and say the phrase back to him. This can go on for hours and even after confirming his phrase many times he continues asking all day long. If we ignore him the tantrums begin. He gets himself worked up to the point of screaming this phrase. Once we acknowledge it and then re direct with actviies of many kinds he will still continue all day long. Any suggestions on how we can best work with him ? Any suggestions of how to move past this repeating phrase and to connect with him?
