For MIS students, this can be done during a one-on-one session, prior to working with them on their IEP goals, play a song they like, and use the first-then strategy to prompt the kids to stay on task. Their reward for staying on task will be a preferred activity. When kids are allowed to do preferred activities every after a task is completed, they are more engaged and ready to transition to the next task and this is also a way to build relationships with them because they are non-verbal. Their facial expressions and body movements say it all when they are allowed to do preferred activities.
