Change the task: have the child march and take 3 steps forward instead of jump to decrease physical demand

Change the environment: give verbal or visual cues for what to do next in the routine to decrease cognitive demand

Change the task: repeat the routine with a different leader each time to increase cognitive demand

Change the environment: place markers approximately 30cm apart to increase distance to where the child needs to jump when doing the routine to increase physical demand

• in two-weeks, the child will be able to follow the entire routine with 80% accuracy
• I can complete the routine with my friends
