The video on the following slide features a teaching assistant who is both promoting and assessing a child's ability to
make choices and to anticipate what will happen in the context of a familiar social routine. It shows Jo, a teaching assistant,
working with Katie, an eleven year old pupil who has a severe visual impairment and cerebral palsy.
Katie's twin impairments affect her ability to explore what is around her. She has limited expressive skills but has her
own names for familiar people and activities.
A case study: Katie (2)
Jo encourages Katie to select one of two objects that have become associated by Katie with particular poems so that she
can choose a preferred sensory poem. Jo makes written records of Katie's responses which show that the objective of the session
is achieved.
