| Debra and Miss Sue met with Savannah to review the plan and the checklist to ensure she understood the expectations. Savannah seemed nervous. When asked, Savannah admitted, "I'm not sure I understand what to do." She was assured that Miss Lisa would be there to help her. Savannah smiled and said "Okay! That's better."

Tools - Task checklist

- Cart
Support Team - Miss Lisa, Job Coach
- Erika, Employer

Coaching Strategy - Lisa will use repeated hands-on demonstration with verbal prompts to teach the tasks.
- As Savannah masters elements of a task, Lisa will fade out the hands-on demonstration and use verbal prompts only.
- When Savannah demonstrates she can do the entire series of tasks independently, she will fade out, and Erika will become Savannah's go-to person should she have a question or require help.
Transportation Plans Savannah will walk from school to work at the beginning of her shift. Mom or Dad will pick her up at the end of the shift.
