A visual timetable is a great way to show children their routine for the morning, afternoon or even whole day.
We use them in school to show children their sequence of lessons and include time for their areas of interest, such as playing with cars, to use as a reward for completing focus activities.
I’ve included some examples that can be printed out, but you could also draw pictures or encourage older children to create their own timetables to use throughout the day.
For younger children a ‘Now/Then’ or a ‘Now/Next’ board is also a useful way to motivate them to complete an activity. As the ‘Then/ Next’ part of the board could be a reward for completing the task that you would like them to do first.
