Graphic Organizers:

What type of graphic organizer(s) might the student require in order to visually represent and organize the concepts, feelings, or behaviors that relate to arriving on time?

If the student struggles to understand why arriving on time is so important, a decision tree could be used.  Below are two filled-in forms (one that identifies work-related consequences and one related to social activities), along with blank versions for your use:

"Arriving On Time - Graphic Organizer - Job - Example"

"Arriving On Time - Graphic Organizer - Job - Blank"

"Arriving On Time - Graphic Organizer - Social -Example"

"Arriving On Time - Graphic Organizer - Social -Blank"

If the student has difficulty in organizing his time, he may be underestimating how much time things take.  The student may argue vehemently that he can complete a task within a time period. A graphic organizer may be useful in priming the student to see the difference between the estimated time and actual time involved in activity completion.  The graphic organizer can then be used to adjust times on his schedule or a specific to-do list to assist him in transitioning more effectively.

For the student who is starting a new job (internship, volunteer position, etc.) and needs help breaking down and processing all of the new job preparation activities, consider the use of the following worksheet:

"Starting A New Job"

Is there a way to visually or thematically incorporate the student’s interests into this graphic organizer to increase motivation and engagement?

Below is one graphic organizer that may assist the student in organizing situations into three distinct categories:  I should arrive fifteen minutes early, I should arrive right on time, or I can arrive 10-30 minutes late.  A race car theme is incorporated into this graphic organizer, as the student in this particular example is very interested in racing:

What additional visual clarity cues (e.g. icons, bolding, highlighting, color-coding) might you add to the graphic organizer to clarify concepts and to direct attention to key details?

In order to align this intervention topic area with the unique needs of the student, do you need to create a graphic organizer in the View2do program?
