Since March 2020, our students (much like the rest of the world) were forced to learn and work from home. Their daily school routine and structure were turned upside down. Our students already have difficulty adjusting to the everyday changes of life. In addition, this pandemic has separated our students from what they are familiar with and know. A typical day in our ABA classrooms, students use various visual and behavioral supports, such as a full-day schedule, choice menu, token boards, first-then boards, social stories and etc. Why are visual supports so important to our students? They provide structure and routine, encourage independence, build confidence, improve understanding, avoid frustration and anxiety, and also provide opportunities to interact with others. In September, we will need to create multiple visual supports for each student to use at home for virtual learning, as well as separate supports to keep in school for when they return for their hybrid sessions.
