Here are a few tips to make scheduling easier:
1. You can start with this free schedule form to write down your schedules from Therapy
Planner. You can edit it in Word or just print it out and start writing in pencil of course with a
huge eraser.

2. Try sticky notes – check out this on Pinterest where the therapist uses sticky notes on a file
folder. Seems pretty genius to me but knowing my luck, I will carry that in a wind storm and
good bye schedule! Maybe little flag sticky notes on the printable schedule above might help
when considering who to move where when conflicts arise.
3. Push in – sometimes the easiest way to make everyone’s schedules work in to provide push
in therapy. Children won’t miss important academic time. You can role model for teachers and
parents techniques and suggestions. Another huge bonus, is that you are seeing the student in
his/her natural environment.
4. Out of ideas already… So let’s share – what is your BEST TIP for scheduling?
If you want to stay ahead of the curve, keeping organized all school year check out the Therapy
Planner for 2016-2017 or watch the video to see the sample pages. It is available in 4 different
styles (one being white background to save on printer ink). This is an electronic document with
all the materials to stay organized this school year starting July 2016 through June 2017. More
pages added this year! All you need to do it print out the pages, punch holes and toss them

in a binder. This planner will help you stay organized all year long. FIND OUT MORE.
