Try writing a social story. Carol Gray's website is very helpful for this. Clearly identify when and why you have to wait. This really works for kids who can comprehend the verbal and/or written story. If they are lower functioning, use a picture schedule or pair a "wait" card with the action of waiting. You might really have to practice this in various settings before generalization will occur. Another thing I have tried is giving a "stim" item to take the pressure off of waiting. Often these kids don't have a clear concept of ...(Answered by lolabellaquin)

What you can do to improve your english with grammar is to read a lot of english stuff. You should have some high standard and reliable english books of your interest in your library. Reading one page daily is better than reading seven pages weekly. Listen to english news as Fox news, BBC news, CNN, bloomberg etc. Among them, BBC is the best. Listen to the english news even if you do not understand it thoroughly. Once you will get used to it, you will start getting everything. Did you ever think that how you learned your own native language? ...(Answered by d♥n't y♥u dare try t♥ add me)

Talk to yourself, talk to everybody. Get used to verbal dialogue, go to the delicatessan, talk to your server in a restaurant. When you take the emphasis away from how people perceive you, your mind will be free to concentrate on what you are actually saying. Talk to the cashier, don't worry what the guy behind you in line thinks, just do it. Talk to a sales clerk. There are plenty of books that will teach you skills that will enable you to present yourself the way you want. Watch ...(Answered by peppermint_paddy)

I assume the students you are working with are significantly developmentally delayed. There is a program called the Life Horizons program that is especially designed to deal with this issue. It is available through the James Stanfield Company and there are a variety of materials and modules. It is an excellent resource. You will need to discuss it thoroughly with the parents, and possibly work through some of it with them so they see what is involved. From many years of working with developmentally delayed youth, this is the best program I have found for ...(Answered by Imaka)
