I Need a Break Flashcards: 2 Pages

This Program Has 2 Pages

Able2learn has created Break Flashcards ( 2.8 inches x 2.1 inches)  for your student. The cards are visual reminder.   There are many ways to use these cards.  

1.  Student hands in a card when a break  is requested.  This can be used to help a student request a break when he/she is feeling overwhelmed.  Teach your student to understand when they are feeling overwhelmed and require time alone.  

2. Break Cards can be paired with options to take a break. Teach your student to request a break and, decide what kind of a break they would like to have at that time.  The student can have an option to be in a quiet room, play a game, listen to music, jump on the trampoline or bounce a ball.  

3. Break cards can be used to control escape behaviour. If your student is not staying on task by requesting to leave all the time, a limited number of break cards can be given to the student.

 This strategy was effective for my child who used to escape to the bathroom during language arts.
