Help your students navigate transitions and stay motivated with this "First-Then" Visual Schedule Board!
Designed specifically for Special Education (SPED) classrooms, students with Autism, and early childhood settings, this "First-Then" board is a powerful tool for behavior management and routine building. By clearly communicating expectations, you can reduce anxiety and increase task completion for your little learners.
What is a First-Then Board?
A First-Then board is a simple visual aid that shows a student what they need to complete first (a non-preferred task like "Math" or "Writing") before they can have what comes then (a preferred reward like "Recess" or "Play-Doh").

- 10 Color-Coded Boards: Beautiful purple illustrative style that is calming and professional.
- Over 20 Pre-Made Activity Cards: Including high-frequency school activities:
- Academic: Write, Color, Computer, Chrome Book.
- Routine: Lunch, Snack, Bathroom, Un-pack, Water.
- Play/Reward: Recess, Play-Doh, Building Blocks, Legos, Music, Cars.

- "My Choice" Cards: To empower students to select their own rewards.
Perfect For:
- Special Education Teachers

- Speech & Occupational Therapists
- Pre-K and Kindergarten Teachers
- Homeschooling Routines
Teacher Tips for Success:
- Laminate & Velcro: For daily durability, laminate the boards and cards. Use Velcro dots so students can physically help change their tasks.
- Keep it Simple: Use this for students who are overwhelmed by a full-day visual schedule. It breaks the day down into manageable "bites."
