1. Create a poster-like template that outlines the different items used for a place setting. Physically assist the student in placing each item for the place setting in the proper location (spoon and knife on right, fork[s] on left, and a napkin under the knife and spoon), coupled with verbal prompting.
2. Continue Step 1, with a modification of using only half of the template.
3. Continue Step 2, with no template and only verbal prompting at an actual table setting.
4. Reduce the verbal praise incrementally until the rate is only once per situation where the student has set the table.
