Task An.

The task that John has the hardest time completing is coming in from the school van and putting his belongings in his cubby including his jacket. John tends to throw his bag down at the door, then his coat down, then he starts playing. John always forgets to wash his hands first. My goal will be for John to get from the School Van to breakfast by following directions.

My picture cards will show:
1.John arriving on the van
2.John walking into the classroom
3.John putting his bag into his cubby
4.John putting his coat into his cubby
5. John washing his hands
6.John playing with manipulatives
7.John washing his hands
8John sitting down with his breakfast

The cards will help break down the morning for John to understand exactly what is expected of him when he arrives at school. My task is the arrival. I will take pictures of John so that John can see what he is suppose to do. I will have them velcroed on a communication board so that if John has forgotten a step I can walk him to the board and he can pull the pieces off one by one that he has completed.
