8 essentials for success with FASD

1. CONCRETE
not abstract

2. CONSISTENCY
and be predictable

3. REPITITION
this is very helpful

4. ROUTINE
keep a strict schedule...even to the point of leaving early to keep the child's bedtime

5. SIMPLICITY
do not overstimulate

6. SPECIFIC
say exactly what you mean

7. STRUCTURE
this is the glue that helps the world make sense to persons with an FASD

8. SUPERVISION
keep the child with an FASD and others safe

-Deb Evensen and Jan Lutke 1997 "8 magic keys"
