Nonverbal Reasoning and Time / Organization
Nonverbal Reasoning: Deficits in perceptual organization can result in limited concept of time and challenges with spatial planning.
| Time | |
| Use a visual timer | |
| Point out timeframes in daily activities | Examples: ‘It only took 10 minutes to get home.”; “How long do you think it will take to get to the store?”) |
| Spatial Planning | |
| Use words instead of maps | Example: Turn right on Main Street |
| Use verbalization to help organize | |
| Use an organizational system that is simple and allows easy visual access | (e.g. in child’s room, provide clear/transparent, shallow bins placed side-by-side on a low shelf or label drawers)  |
| Segment tasks into specific details to make them more manageable | Example: Instead of clean your room, try pick up your shoes, put away clean laundry, etc. |
