5 Minutes Left and What Can I Do? : 100 Fun and Challenging Puzzles
Thank you for visiting this page! After 30+ years of teaching, these are my absolute favorite classroom-tested time fillers. Every teacher needs to have something ready when a planned lesson ends earlier than anticipated or the kids just need a break at the end of the period.

Here is a freebie to assist students in your classroom who have Autism.
I would print out the schedule and picture symbols on cardstock.

Laminate each piece, then stick the velcro adhesive to the symbols and the schedule card. =)
ENJOY!
