Visual Supports Lanyard | Classroom Routine, Behavior & Communication Visuals
Need visual supports available right when a student needs them, instead of searching through a binder, board, or folder in the middle of a transition?
This Visual Supports Lanyard gives SLPs, special education teachers, classroom staff, paraprofessionals, and other school professionals quick access to commonly used communication, classroom routine, behavior, and regulation visuals throughout the school day.
Print, prep, and keep the visuals close by so you can provide a clear visual cue during speech therapy, classroom routines, transitions, hallway movement, work tasks, and other everyday school situations.
The resource includes visuals for common directions and communication needs such as listening ears, sit, walk, stand up, work, help, all done, yes, no, and wait.
