Choice Cards

Choice cards are similar to the previous post that was on Break Cards. These cards are a great source to have for students especially with autism. Some students are non-verbal and do not communicate their needs. This can be very frustrating for them because they are not receiving what they want or need. Therefore, these cards are used to help students make choices and decisions. This allows them to gain some independence back. If they are having snack instead of just getting what is given to them they can make choices of which they would prefer. The students can feel empowered throughout their day. This can improve their communication, engagement and behavior when they have the option to make choices.
