The purpose of this chapter is to assist educators in understanding how to create handmade content to support functional skills, following a multi-step recipe will serve as the example, while the application of dot codes can be applied to other content areas as well as support transfer of skills to the home environment. Students are using the speaking-pen in both the home and classroom conditions to support repeated trials in their natural environment. A succinct description of implementing dot-codes into the classroom to support functional skills specific to individuals with ASD will be shared. This chapter will focus on following a multi-step recipe; however, the implementation can be applied to multiple areas of functional instruction.
