Choiceworks Visual Support System

Choiceworks Visual Support System Choiceworks is a learning tool that uses a combination of 3 structured boards, visual images and built in choice making opportunities to effectively help children complete daily routines (morning, day & night), understand & control their feelings and improve their waiting skills (taking turns, not interrupting). The included companion books help teach your child about their daily schedule, dealing with transitions and managing their feelings. “The ChoiceworksTM Visual Support System provides exactly the kind of communication support that enables children to follow routines, make choices and demonstrate appropriate behavior. This system is a fabulous tool to help children participate more effectively with greater independence.” Linda Hodgdon, M. ED, CCC-SLP Author of Visual Strategies for Improving Communication”So many children are challenged on a daily basis in participating in and understanding social situations, and in regulating and expressing their emotions. The ChoiceworksTM Visual Support System is a well designed, high quality system for supporting children, their parents and professionals in daily routines and activities. It is an essential “transactional support” that is consistent with practices we have developed in the SCERTS Model.”Barry M. Prizant, Ph.D., CCC-SLP “While designed with families in mind, the ChoiceworksTM Visual Support System would also be a wonderful addition to a child’s school program, since it serves to remind parents and educators alike that we shouldn’t just react to difficult situations- we should respect, teach, and support the child through them. The Choiceworks Visual Support System provides an ideal way to do just that!” Jennifer Twachtman-Reilly, M.S., CCC-SLP
