When to use:

• Use to replace or reinforce verbal directions.
• Use to quickly and quietly redirect a student.

Tip: Make sure that the student is able to ‘line up’ before using this visual. A student must be taught how to line up before a visual will help them remember to line up.

How to use:

1. Use the cue card to visually reinforce verbal directions, or as nonverbal reminders.
2. Be sure the student can see the cue card.

Tips:

• Use a photograph of the student lining up instead of a line drawing to increase student ownership and understanding of the desired behavior.
  
• Keep several cue cards on a key ring or lanyard for easy access to commonly used directions during student interactions throughout the day. See Behavior Cue Cards for an example.
