Morning Routine

Added by Kristen Lasley on November 8, 2019

This is my student’s first period morning routine and meeting. Students come into the room and immediately complete their classroom jobs. Afterwards, they lead each other through a student led power point presentation (which is changed monthly). After the meeting, they collect attendance folders for the whole school and take them to the office. This whole routine takes approximately 40 minutes to complete.

Lessonpix.com is used to create PECS sentences for the PP presentation.

Class calendar with monthly events is posted at eye level so that it can be used interactively.

A daily schedule is posted at eye level so that students can see and it can be changed easily.

Food words wall is color coded according to main dish, side dishes, deserts, drinks, and utensils.

Class snack shop is in the corner and allows students to practice job skills (restocking shelves).
