LHTH & Workboxes

Post by GrannySimplicity » Tue Oct 02, 2012 9:37 pm

I am sorry to ask so many questions, but I have another one that I would like some ideas for. I have been using workboxes for our daughter (age 6) with her previous curriculum and have loved the results in keeping her focused. Our son (age 4) will be starting LHTH in a few days. We are expecting delivery from UPS tomorrow.

He is severely autistic (very low functioning/non-verbal/developmentally delayed) and needs the structure of visual schedules. The workbox system seems to help keep him focused, as it does his sister. I am wondering, does anyone use workboxes with LHTH? How do you set it up? I have already figured out the visual schedule part of it. Just wondering what, if anything, you find works with using the workboxes.

Thanks in advance,
Paula

Thank you Julie. I had received a pm about workboxes. The links sure give me a good idea on how to set everything up. I finally have a method figured out for us and may share it later this week after making sure it will work out for us.
