s the assessment tied to the Functional Academics curriculum?
A. Each section that is assessed is linked to at least one, often a few, subject areas in the curriculum that are designed to address the deficits identified by the assessment. Each section of the assessment and curriculum include a flow chart that directs you to the appropriate skill in the sequence to teach. For instance, if your student can count by 1’s to 10 in the assessment, the flow chart directs you to teach Money Management B, which is teaching the student to use money with the next dollar (up) strategy. In addition, the flow chart refers you to the Community Based Training (CBT) programs that apply the skills in the community. In this example, if a student has the skill to count by ones and you are teaching him the next dollar strategy in the classroom, you will also have programs to teach that skill in the grocery stores and restaurants.
