Supporting Expressive Language: Past Event Cards

Children with autism have difficulty recalling past events. A great way to help students is to create a visual representation for them to recall events in the classroom or at home.  By creating Past Events Cards, students can help recall what has taken place between home and school.  A generic template can be created by teachers which can help relay information about what has occurred. A Past Event Card may say "First, __________, Then, ________. 




Past Event Cards seems to be a great tool to use for students who need help recalling events and to also stay on task in the classroom, knowing what event needs to happen in order for another event to take place. The next posts will discuss two websites that will be useful in my instruction in the classroom.
