[quote=Anonymous]At that age, I was doing a few things that worked. - having my son pick his own system. We’d talk through what was needed and then go to Staples so he could pick a system. This was most effective if done two or so weeks into the school year. - identifying the place for everything. There was never a question as to where something needed to be or what needed to come home because specifically discussed it and identified where in the binder it needed to go. (We included things like water bottles and gloves so that personal items didn’t get lost or forgotten). - laminated checklists with a wax pencil to go in the front of the binder. Contents of the checklist were made by my son because he knew what cues he needed to be sure everything come home. By fifth grade I felt like my son should start to take responsibility for his own accommodations. He really responded to this approach. With an IEP, you can get a goal to manage the backpack.
