A wide variety of cards can be found in the printables section of this lesson, so you have right cards for the right part of the school day.  \nWhile there are endless options for these cards, as you share them with your students, narrow it down to ones that are most meaningful to avoid overwhelming them with too many card choices.  \nAlong with an array of schedule cards, there are several Planning Organizer Mats (printables section) that can accompany these cards, and some timesaving tips sprinkled throughout for creating a visually pleasing classroom schedule with the help of the VariQuest Visual and Kinesthetic Learning Suite.  \nWhat is a Visual Schedule?  \n• A visual schedule is a schedule made with pictures.  \n• The purpose is to provide a tool students can use to help them move throughout their day.  \n• A visual schedule might include only pictures or pictures and words. What the schedule looks like will depend on the needs of each child.  \n• A visual schedule can be used for both verbal and nonverbal students.  \nHow Visual Schedule Cards Help Students  \nIf you are not familiar with visual schedules in the classroom, you will find there are many benefits to students.  \n• They are a great tool for helping students plan their next steps or learn to follow routines.  \n• Visual schedules help set clear classroom expectations.  \n• They help with transitions. When a student has a schedule in front of them,  \nthey might have less anxiety about what will happen next. Reducing this anxiety can help minimize meltdowns some children may experience when they become overwhelmed.  \n• Visual schedules help students build independence and confidence in their abilities.  \n• For nonverbal students, a visual schedule is a way to communicate. Children who cannot speak, might be able to communicate their progress by moving a schedule card from a ‘to do’ to a ‘finished’ section, or simply flip over a card when the task is completed.  \nInstructions for Using the Provided Materials  \nA visual schedule will often be individualized. You want to make sure what you offer a student for support, is the best fit. Before you begin preparing your materials, start by setting a goal for your student. What will their goal be? As you do this, be sure to think about the skills the student already has, and the skills they are developing. As you introduce your students to their visual schedule, and how to use it, be sure to set  \nthem up for success.  \nIn the printables section of this lesson, you will find variety of Planning Organizer Mats designed to pair with 3”x3” visual schedule cards to help students visualize the steps in a familiar or new routine.  \nVariQuest Customers download Planning Mats at the VariQuest Resource Center, Free! Print them in full color using the Perfecta® Series Printer and pair them with the Motiva Visual Schedule Cards!  \nVisual Schedule Cards  \nFirst, choose a planning mat that meets the needs of each student best, then print the mats on card stock (made easy with the VariQuest Perfecta® STP Series Poster Design System and Heavyweight Coated 13”x19” Paper) .  \nNext, laminate the mats for added durability (consider the VariQuest Cold Laminator 2510 and do away with warmup times and unpleasant fumes) .  \nLast, attach a piece of Velcro inside each 3”x3” square on the mat.  \nImplementing a Visual Schedule  \nOnce you have created the mat best for each student, work on printing the schedule cards they will need (be sure to add a piece of Velcro to the back of each card) . You will find a collection of Visual Schedule","cbCaidcdP7BJ6OHt","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidcdP7BJ6OHt","pdf",3706618,28,"English","# What is a Visual Schedule?\n## How Visual Schedule Cards Help Students\n# Instructions for Using the Provided Materials\n## Visual Schedule Cards\n## Implementing a Visual Schedule\n# Using Schedule Cards Without Planning Mats","[{\"question\":\"What is a visual schedule and what is it used for?\",\"answer\":\"A visual schedule is made with pictures and may include pictures only or pictures with words.
