COGNITIVE / ACADEMIC SKILLS

'Cause every individual deserves to learn

READING

OATECA uses​ ​skills taught in the Early Literacy Skills Builder curriculum. This curriculum was developed after an exhaustive research had been done looking for commercially available curriculum that was appropriate for students with significant disabilities. The research team RAISE, found none that existed that did not require a fairly sophisticated verbal skill level that most students in this category did not possess (D.B. Taylor et al. 2010).​​

WRITING

In the OATECA core system, we focus on the beginning mechanics of writing, involving tracing, copying and utensil control.

For the composition of writing and "next-step" instruction, our Writing Add-on contains the OATECA Functional Writing Assessment and Curriculum Activities.

MATH

OATECA uses similar activities and vocabulary from the alternate Dynamic Learning Map assessment.
