Routes for Learning: Routemap Accuracy Refinement Notices stimuli Responds to close physical contact with familiar person Responds to very obvious stimulus Demonstrates familiarity with recently presented stimulus Responds to familiar voice or other personal identifier Responds to range of stimuli Supported 1:1 turn-taking with adult pending Responds consistently to one stimulus Briefly follows moving stimulus Responds to some stimuli in a way that can be interpreted as rejection Responds differently to different stimuli Terminates interaction with adult Anticipates repetitively presented stimulus Objects to termination of interaction With support explores immediate environment Anticipates within familiar social routines Redirects attention to a second object Accidental actions cause effect Looks briefly after object disappearing from their field of vision In a reactive environment repeats action which obtains sensory feedback Responds in ways that can be interpreted as meaning ‘more’ Responds to cause and effect In an everyday environment repeats action which obtains sensory feedback Changes behaviour in response to interesting event nearby Shows understanding that their action causes a specific effect Begins to explore immediate environment with intent Communicates ‘more’/‘no more’ through two different consistent actions ‘Looks’ backwards and forwards between two objects (knows two objects are present) In the context of a familiar social game, perseveres by repeating action in order to get reward Repeats action when first attempt unsuccessful Attracts attention Initiates social game Object permanence Does two different actions in sequence to get reward Selects from two or more items Communicates choice to attentive adult Modifies action when repeating action does not work Deliberately attracts attention of another person in order to communicate need Joint attention Expresses preference for items not present via symbolic means Early problem-solving: tries new strategy when old one fails Initiates strategies to achieve desired results in a variety of contexts (exercises autonomy) Main cognitive route Alternative routes Main communication route Alternative routes
