Classroom Visual Schedules and TPT Sale!

Visual Schedules help little ones keep track of their day, know what to do next, and make transitions MUCH smoother.  I have always used visual schedules with my SPED students, but quickly realized that all my little learners benefitted from them.  I use a visual schedule that has picture icons of our daily activities.  Velcro is used to adhere the pictures.  After an activity is completed it can be removed from the schedule.  Little ones are able to figure out how many activities are left before their day ends.  It's like magic!  Behavior improves dramatically.  I recently completed a pack of visuals that can be used to create your own classroom visual schedule.  There are icons for daily activities and specific icons to use during circle/calendar time.  Job icons are also included.  There are also detailed instructions and examples on how to implement one in your classroom.
Here's a peek at the pack….
Here's a sample.






Below is a list of picture icons.
