This structured PDF presentation (full lesson) is designed for individuals with ASD and executive functioning deficits. It explores why time can be difficult to judge and manage, including time-based memory, hyperfocus, and literal interpretation of time language, and teaches practical, evidence-based strategies for tracking time and staying on task.

What is covered:

  • What Is Time Management and Time Perception — how these two skills are connected
  • Why Do We Struggle With Time — why time is naturally hard to track and estimate
  • Why This Can Be Harder for Individuals with ASD — time-based memory, sequencing, hyperfocus, and literal time language
  • The Universal Struggle — reassurance that misjudging time is a widely shared difficulty, shared across ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia as well
  • What Time Management Struggles Can Look Like — recognising the signs before they build
  • Examples — the morning routine, and the absorbing task
  • Strategies for Managing Time— the Visual Timer Method, the Time Estimate and Check Method, the Transition Warning, and the Buffer Time Rule
  • Evidence-Based Techniques — Time Boxing, and the Pomodoro Technique
  • Practice Scenarios and Generalised Feedback — realistic scenarios with feedback
  • Practical Tips and Key Takeaways

Suitable for:

  • Individuals with ASD and executive functioning deficits aged 13+
