177. My 5 Best Tips for Using Visual Supports to the Max
Manage episode 374304564 series 3228277
We all use visual supports in our everyday lives, we just don’t realize that’s what we’re doing. Visual supports tell us where to sit at a concert or what rooms we aren’t allowed in at a restaurant. Using visual supports in your special education classroom helps your students understand expectations in the classroom like they help us understand expectations in the community.
There are ways that you can use visual supports in your classroom to make the most impact. In today’s episode, I am sharing the importance of using visual schedules, why you should have behavior-related visuals around the room, and how to keep your room and visuals organized.
01:57 - Why you need to have your visual schedules in place and why you should have a backup
04:26 - What questions to ask yourself to determine where in your classroom you need more visual supports
07:56 - How I use a variety of behaviorally related visuals around the room
09:23 - Why you should have cubbies, bookshelves, and cabinets labeled
11:58 - My tips for storing visuals in an organized fashion
