Last night I had an awesome time using Facebook Live to share how I use a form I call a teaching plan or a Comprehensive Autism Planning System (CAPS) Teaching Plan to plan out data collection and the classroom schedule. In case you missed it, I’ve embedded the video below…it’s about 45 minutes long. If you want to read the comments and questions you can find them by clicking on the link below the video to see the post:
