Backward Chaining

The adult begins the task and the child only completes the last step. Gradually the adult does less as the child is able to do more of the task themselves e.g. the adult puts the T-shirt over the child’s head and helps them to get their arms through the holes. The child then pulls down the t-shirt at the front.

An Example Of Backward Chaining

Taking off a T-shirt:

1. Let the child remove the T-shirt from their head

2. Let the child remove T-shirt from their neck

3. Let the child remove T-shirt with one arm in and one arm out

4. Let the child remove the T-shirt with one arm in and one arm half out

5. Let the child remove the T-shirt with both arms in and T-shirt pulled up to shoulders

6. Let the child remove the T-shirt
