$10 - $20 Life Skills For Parents (by date, latest first)

If you are looking for a way to organize your classroom and support your students with visual schedules, then this resource is for you! This Visual Schedule and Classroom Organization Set will help you organize your task boxes, job board, and classroom schedule. You can also have students use the individual board visual schedule to set their own personal visual schedules!

Visual schedules are a tool used for students with exceptionalities, but particularly for those with autism, to help transition between activities and places, follow a routine, know what to expect in their day, and develop new skills.  The schedule allows a sequence of pictures and words to be arranged in order so that students can set and follow a daily schedule, as well as mark off completed tasks.  The schedule can also be used to break large tasks or events down into smaller steps.  Having a visual schedule can be a help to reduce challenging behaviour.

Connecting your whole class schedule, with board sized individual schedules, and personal visual schedules is easy with the resources you will find in this bundle. You can also organize the task boxes in your independent work stations and use the included task strips for students to work through their tasks for the day.

*Please keep in mind that bullying is NEVER ok. Teaching children how to handle hurt feelings does not mean that you tolerate bullying. If you feel that there is bullying behavior in your school, it is your responsibility as a teacher to end it.

Also included in this bundle is "How do they Feel?" Printable Book (my current best-selling product!)

This printable book is designed to help children identify the emotions that other people might be feeling. Each page contains an illustration of a child and a short description of what that child has experienced, followed by the question, "How does ____ feel?"

For example, on one page a girl is shown with an ice cream cone that has fallen to the ground. The text on that page says, "Ella dropped her ice cream cone on the sidewalk. How does Ella feel?"

Teachers or parents can use the mini-stories on each page to help children identify and talk about their own emotions as well as the emotions of others. Children are encouraged to look at facial features and body language to help to identify the feelings of other people.

You can also purchase each of these packets individually:
