Classroom supports
Choose the supports that fit what you see at school, then use the support plan page to decide which to try first.
Agree on a first step with Sample User. Keep a card nearby to write down new ideas, so they can finish that step before moving on.
When a new idea comes up: “Let’s write that down so you don’t forget it. What do you still need to finish before you try it?”
- If Sample User leaves the agreed step unfinished to follow a new idea.
- If they keep adding new ideas to the task instead of saving them on the card.
Before a task or routine changes, write a short “same / different” note with Sample User and keep it beside the work.
With the same / different note in front of Sample User: “We’re answering the same questions, but this time we’ll compare answers as a group. Let’s use the note to work out what to do next.”
- If Sample User keeps following the old instructions after the change.
- If they need repeated reminders to check the note.
Give Sample User a short checklist of what the assignment must include, and time to check and add anything missing before handing it in.
With the checklist beside the finished work: “Let’s use the list to see if anything is missing. Find each part in your work before you check it off, and add anything you’ve left out.”
- If Sample User hands in work with parts missing.
- If they check boxes without looking at the work.
