  2. Lentini, R., Vaughn, B. J., & Fox, L. (2005). Teaching Tools for Young Children with Challenging Behavior. Tampa, Florida: University of South Florida, Early Intervention Positive Behavior Support. Assembly Directions If your class rules differ from what is available, please feel free to make adaptations. You can double click on the word, located above the picture, to change the text label. Also, a blank template for pictures or photographs has been provided on the last slide. If you would like to personalize pictures or make additional picture prompts, you can paste the pictures into the template and add text using the “text box” on the bottom tool bar. Print the pictures on cardstock (printing directions on slides 3 and 4), cut and laminate them. For the large class size picture cues, place a piece of male Velcro (rough side) on the back of each picture. Velcro on the back allows the teacher remove a picture to individually cue a child of the rules. Attach pictures to a laminated file folder. The folder (or board) should have small strips of female Velcro (the soft side) across the front, so that the pictures adhere to the board, yet can be removed for cueing. For the “key ring” cues (see photograph below), simply punch holes in the corners of the picture cues and attach to the key ring. The key ring can then be worn on the teacher’s wrist for quick access when individually prompting children. Key ring sample with mini picture cues Class Size Picture Cues To view photographs at a larger size, go to “view” on tool bar and then to “zoom”. Created using pictures from Microsoft Clipart®
