First…Next…Last

When working with 4-7-year-olds, I try to do three things in a 30-minute session, and time concepts aren’t great yet. They need to see what’s happening. It allays anxiety, lays it out spatially, and helps build a better concept of time. The “First”, “Next”, “Last” cards, with a representation of what we’ll be doing first, next, and last that day help do that. Pictures of the three tasks would also work, and the pictures could live in the child’s folder for quick setup.
