Description
“First work, then break” is one of the most useful phrases in any classroom. This free First Then Board makes it visual, so students can see what’s happening now and what’s coming next.
What’s Included in the First Then Board
- A color picture version
- A black and white version
- A real photo version
- A black and white photo version
- Picture cards for each version: work, break, snack, toy, bathroom and technology
Ways to Use Your First Then Board
Keep one at your teacher table, one at independent work, and one in your bag for transitions around the building. It works for whole group, small group and 1:1 time. Having real photo and picture icon versions in one download means you can match the board to what each student understands best. For some students, the real photo of the bathroom clicks faster than any icon.
Why Teachers Love It
- Four versions: pick what works for each student, or print in black and white to save ink.
- Clear and simple: two spots, one arrow, no clutter.
- Everyday cards included: the activities you use a First Then board for most.
- Low prep: print, laminate, add Velcro, and go.
