Make your own in seconds

SCAFLI is in early access. The free PDF above needs no sign-up.
What it is
A step-by-step visual for one routine. Each step is a row with a number, a picture, a few words and a box to check when it is done.
How to use it
- Hang it at the sink, at the student's eye level.
- Point to each step as the student does it, with as few words as you can.
- Let the student check the box, then fade your pointing over time.
Three quick tips
- Laminate it and use a dry-erase marker so it can be used every day.
- Use the same steps and words every time.
- Practice when there is no rush, not only right before lunch.
Questions
- Can I add or change steps?
- Yes. Type the steps you use and SCAFLI puts a picture with each one.
- Does it work at home too?
- Yes. The same page works at a classroom sink or a bathroom at home.
- Can I make one for getting dressed?
- Yes. Ask for getting dressed steps, or any other routine, and you get the same kind of page.
