How do I use the picture schedule?

(if individual is having behavioral issues and chooses to pull all pictures and the schedule itself off of the wall, secure schedule in a place where he/she has access to it only when assisted to use the schedule…like outside of room, on opposite side of door)

that day in order…blocks, playdough, bubbles…
