Running late every time you leave the house? Don't have time for breakfast? Do you forget important items when you have to leave in a rush? In this one-time class students will take a look at their morning schedule and start to develop a realistic picture regarding how much time their morning routine should take. Strategies for planning and preparation in advance will be covered as will reminder strategies to ensure that nothing gets left behind. Students will learn to create a time buffer/ reward system to build in some extra time for morning activities and reward themselves with an activity they enjoy if they complete their morning schedule early. Students will brainstorm ways to bring creativity and fun to their morning routine by recording their ideas in a graphic organizer. Topics for discussion and reflection will include: -Choosing a reasonable "wakeup time" -Creating a "soundtrack" by which they can maintain a consistent pace for their morning activities. -Establishing silly wake up rituals. -Coming up with yummy and easy breakfast ideas. -Making a list of fun lunch ideas that can be made the night or weekend before. -Planning a "staging area" for things that need to go to school. -Using creative strategies for morning reminders. ****My Refund Policy **** One Time Class: Full refund upon request up to one week before the start of class.
Learning Goals
Students will develop a greater awareness of what time their routine activities actually take. They will understand the importance of planning ahead and putting routines in place to ensure that they get out the door on time.
Other Details
Learning Needs
Class supports executive function development in neurodivergent learners including autistic learners as well as those with ADHD and anxiety. Templates are shared in PDF and Google Doc form to support learners with dyslexia and dysgraphia.
Parental Guidance
Since this is a class for ADHD learners, subjects such as 504 plans, Individual Education Plans, and the use of medication to manage ADHD may come up. In terms of medication, I always address this when it is mentioned by saying that it can be very effective to help learners manage their ADHD, but different families handle this differently. I also mention other ways to manage ADHD such as exercise and structure. This class does not constitute therapy, but rather provides executive function support and the opportunity to connect and problem solve with other ADHD Learners.
Supply List
Handouts that will be used in class will be posted in the Outschool classroom. Please print these out if you can. Colored pens or pencils, post-it notes, and something to write with are always helpful in many of my Outschool classes.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

This class is inspired by a video by Jessica McCabe of the channel How to ADHD entitled "How to (Actually) Get Out the Door on Time"
