A change at home makes part of the school day feel uncertain.

Picture cards: Pick a trusted adult · Ask to talk privately · Ask for one school support

Offer privacy. The student can use a fictional example. Read the picture cards aloud. Say, “Watch me try one move.” Then model the words or action below.

Practice asking for one flexibility option. Say “My home schedule changed. Could we talk privately about what would help?” Invite a student to try once. Read the example again if they want another try.

Say, “Show or tell me your first move.” Point to the card that matches. If needed, model it together once more.

Use a private check-in and follow school support and safety procedures when a student discloses a concern.
