Unity Progression – or “Where do I start?”
The Unity language system was designed to be progressive from one and two word
utterances to full grammatically correct sentences. The starting and ending points of this
progression will vary because of a person’s ability and interests. Some people need to
start with a Unity 1-hit program and build up. Others may be able to begin with the
highest language skill level. Getting to know the individual’s language ability and
learning style is very important when deciding where to start with Unity. For the
clinician, learning the Unity language programs is also very important when deciding
where to start teaching a client.
