What it is

A visual schedule helps students who need to see the day to feel ready for it. Each step has a picture and a word, and the student checks it off when it is done.

How to use it

Go over it first thing, before the day starts.
Point to each step as it begins.
Check it off when it is done, so the student sees what is left.

Three quick tips

Keep it short. A morning or an afternoon is often easier than a whole day.
Use the same pictures every day.
Show a change on the schedule before it happens.

Questions

Can I use it on a tablet?: Yes. Every SCAFLI page prints, and many also play on a screen.
Can I change the steps?: Yes. Type the steps you want and SCAFLI puts a picture with each one.
Does it work for a home routine?: Yes. Ask for a morning, after-school or bedtime routine and you get home steps.

A starting point for your own professional judgment. Use initials only on any page about a student.
