Structured Teaching: Visual Schedules

Do you have students on the Autism Spectrum or that have other developmental learning challenges? Creating a visual schedule is a strategy to help your students transition from place to place throughout the day and reduce the anxiety of what’s coming.

Visual schedules empower individuals to navigate their daily activities independently. By catering to the visual learning preferences common in autism, these schedules provide predictability, reduce anxiety associated with transitions, and accommodate for receptive language difficulties. Additionally, visual schedules can serve as proactive tools for behavioral support, helping prevent challenges related to uncertainty or frustration.
