TME Tuesday - Beep!

Today's TME offers an opportunity to assess memory and sequencing skills, determine response latency, and address impulse control. It is based on a game called "Beep." The game idea is not mine, but the music adaptation is my own idea.

The premise is simple, sing a familiar song with one different word. Ask clients to "beep" when they hear the word that is different. Continue to sing until a client says, "beeps." When the client "beeps," ask them to identify the wrong word and then to sing the correct lyric. Reinforce responses - correct response if client does not identify the correct word. Repeat, changing words. To increase difficulty and to assess client's understanding of game theory, ask them to be the next singer - replacing one word in a familiar song lyric.

Beep.
