Choice Boards Bundle
Choice board to support a child in choosing which reward they would like.
Why do you need this?
A choice board is a visual support that can be used to communicate what choice a child, who finds it otherwise difficult to communicate, would like to make. The use of choice boards can increase a child’s motivation to participate in school giving them a sense of control. Choice boards provide children with autonomy, engagement and personalised learning.
How and when might you use this?
Choice boards allow children to select from a range of options. This empowers children to choose the options that align with their interests and preferences.
By giving them agency over their choices, the choice board promotes independence, self-regulation, and decision-making skills.
Although there are 8 spaces for choices on the boards you can use it to put in as little as two options depending on the child and their needs. There are 12 different choice cards so that again you can tailor which you put on the board according to the child.
What’s included?
5 different choice boards each with 12 cards to choose from:
Break Time Choice Board
Resources Choice Board
Free Time Choice Board
Rewards Choice Board
Calming Down Choice Board

Saying Sorry
The point of a social story is to use a patient and reassuring tone to teach children about social situations in a way that can be easily understood. Social stories can be useful for any child who is struggling to understand a situation or concept or needs help to understand a social skill or social cue, expectations, perspectives, common responses or is troubled about an upcoming event but social stories are particularly useful for children on the autistic spectrum for whom social cues can be challenging and who often suffer anxiety if they do not know what to expect from a situation.
These books should be used over and over to reinforce the point so I would suggest either putting the pages into a display book or laminating and binding them.
