Learn to follow a schedule, even without being able to tell time or remember dates!

Students can learn how to follow a schedule, even if they can't tell time or remember the date. Plan Your Day Curriculum includes an instructor1s guide plus hands-on student resources. Student resources provide everything needed to implement a picture-based scheduling system. Choice cards show everyday activities and are arranged in the appointment book to reflect daily events. Users match the time written on the cards to their digital watch. Day-of-the-week, pocket calendars, and six-months-at-a-glance cards also fit in the appointment book and help students with difficult calendar skills. Plan Your Day instructor's guide describes three types of schedules that progress in complexity: Basic picture schedule, daily schedule and ongoing schedule. You choose the one that best suits each student. Detailed sample schedules, using student resources provided, help you get started.
