According to the National Professional Development Center on ASD (2015) "Exercise has been used successfully as an intervention to increase desired behaviors and decrease inappropriate behavior."

"Exercise intervention is also an evidence based practice that has been effective for preschoolers to middle school children," (National Professional Development Center on ASD, 2015).  
See the Example Below]]> 2018-12-11 19:11:10 UTC https://padlet.com/cox_callie1014/d01xx65wz7g0/wish/313573907 How is ECE being used kfawns https://padlet.com/cox_callie1014/d01xx65wz7g0/wish/313592449 Exercise is being used by teachers, special educators, parents, therapists, paraprofessionals and family members.

A special educator will use exercise for a learner with ASD who has a difficult time in the afternoons completing tasks.  His completion rate increased by fifty percent.

A teacher uses an exercise intervention for her entire class to target multiple behaviors, like emotional regulation, aggressiveness, and self simulator behaviors. It helps to students focus more on academic tasks.]]> 2018-12-11 19:42:58 UTC https://padlet.com/cox_callie1014/d01xx65wz7g0/wish/313592449 Is ECE actually working? awooten11 https://padlet.com/cox_callie1014/d01xx65wz7g0/wish/313684305 Many people probably wonder if ECE is actually working? Below is a link for an Exercise Activity and Movement Checklist.  
You can view the learners ability to preform a skill, and also track their level of interest as well. 
Keeping track of this daily, or even weekly can help you as well as the learner. If you can find something the learner has an interest in, than their ability to preform may be higher.

If you keep track of what the students do and how they preform each day, you can see what actives work well and what ones do not. This will help you help your students succeed.

     ~Is the target or skill being defined well enough for students to understand? 
     ~Is the skill able to observed?
      ~Is the skill too difficult? Should  you break it down into smaller steps? 
     ~Is the skill appropriate for the learner? 

Take the time to observe your activity, and if it isn't working ask yourself why and spend the time figuring out why it isn't. ]]> 2018-12-12 03:36:58 UTC https://padlet.com/cox_callie1014/d01xx65wz7g0/wish/313698838
