Visual supports like choice boards, step-by-step prompts, and break cards teach students to request breaks when they need to regulate their behavior. Teaching this one skill reduces challenging behaviors and helps students stay calm.

Visuals are so important for supporting students that are demonstrating challenging behaviors. The skill of teaching students to ask for a break is really important. There's always times where we need a break and we need to chill, and we want to teach our kids to ask for that. I love these different types of visuals, from choice boards to steps for asking for a break to things to do in a break to these break cards, to really encourage and teach this communicative skill of asking for a break.
