I'll be using these cards for a student who has anxiety, which increases greatly as relates to writing projects. No matter the subject area, the child becomes overwhelmed and angry when asked to write anything more than a paragraph, even about subjects that she is obsessed with (science and technology). By providing the option of academic choice, this student will be afforded control of how the information that she is required to write about is presented. I plan to couple this strategy with Chunking (one Prezi/PowerPoint page or paragraph at a time), which I believe will further help in the management of emotions by decreasing her anxiety.

Make A Choice Card

# data[].attributes.body
I made a basic Chunking folder from items that I already had (manila folders and a notebook) for a middle school student to break down a math worksheet into manageable parts. I plan to make a more fancy one later, personalizing it for the student to make it motivating to use.

I like these break cards because the student can identify the emotional reason for needing a break.

These are an example of cards I used in the classroom with a student that had anxiety. I would laminate these small cards and the child would choose the color for the week. She was able to take the card out and place in on her desk discreetly to indicate that she needed a break. It helped calm her anxiety in class. - Patricia Machado

I use these help cards all around our room, including at student work tables, inside student work binders, and in accessible areas of classroom walls. Students are able to bring or show these cards to a teacher to solicit help if they are not able to ask for help verbally.

I like to students to ask for help from their peers first and then ask me. But they are not allowed to interrupt me if I'm working with a group.

I would create choice cards of required activities, with a few optional ones thrown in. Once chosen, the card is out of circulation.

I loved the idea of break clocks. I also added the reason for the break as it would better assist my understanding of the need- knowing what it is that is causing the need for the break.

Some of our multi-grade (ESE) students are allowed to come to the media center independently. Occasionally they become confused, stressed and frustrated when they aren't sure what they are supposed to be doing. I created a simple visual for them to let me know when they need help.

Choice Card
Using a white board and dry erase markers for a choice card makes it easier to change the choices if data determines that the choices need to be changed.  The student can either point to the choice selected, use a marker to circle the choice selected or erase the choice rejected.
