When a student shows consistent progress in a skill, it is essential to continue teaching the skill. This approach ensures that the student not only maintains their newly acquired abilities but also has the opportunity to deepen their understanding and mastery of the skill. Consistent progress indicates that the current teaching methods and reinforcements are effective, and continuing instruction will help solidify the skill further.

By extending the teaching, practitioners can build on the students' successes, introducing more complex applications of the skill or encouraging generalization to different contexts, which is vital for comprehensive learning. This strategy not only fosters confidence and competence in the skill but also supports the learner's overall development.
