Washing Hands Visual Schedule

Washing my Hands lists seven printed tasks: water on, wet hands, soap, suds, rinsing, water off and towel drying. The accompanying page describes preparing task pictures with lamination and Velcro, and moving a picture after its task is completed.

Publisher identified in the materials: Special Learning.

Material context: The seven written handwashing steps do not specify a washing duration.

The source treats wetting hands, getting soap and rubbing hands together to make suds as separate tasks. Rinsing, turning off the water and drying with a towel follow.

Five instructions describe printing and laminating the pages, cutting pictures into separate pieces and adding Velcro. Each picture is placed beside its matching text in column 2 and moved to column 3 after that task is finished.
