Super Star Schedules: Even More Individual Schedules

We have featured individual schedules before, however there is never a shortage of creative ideas in the classrooms we coach when it comes to creating these schedules from increasing portability and interaction to including special interests. Today we will feature some more of our favorites we have seen recently around the Miami Valley. 


Interactive Schedules
Our first set of examples are some traditional interactive visual schedules with moveable icons that students can remove as each activity is completed.

Interactive Variations
These examples include some variations to make them more interactive including checking off a written schedule or using check mark manipulatives to mark finished activities.

Portability
In addition to being interactive so students connect to the schedule, for students who travel throughout the school building portability is also key. Taking the schedule from location to location allows this tool to be easily accessible and can ease anxiety while also aiding in smoother transitions.

Incorporating Interests
It can be challenging to get student buy-in at times when introducing a visual schedule, therefore incorporating their special interests and favorite characters can be helpful. We love these creative examples!

Reinforcement System Schedules
To get further buy-in for some students, tying their schedule into the class-wide reinforcement system can be a great way to make sure they are continually referencing their schedule throughout the day. It helps increase staff accountability as well!
