Past Event Cards are visual supports that help the student remember and relate to the different activities they did or participated in the past. This is put in the form of a schedule and can be used daily or represent a larger chunk of time like if the student went on vacation. These can be particularly helpful for parents in the home when trying to converse with their child about what they did at school on a particular day.
These cards would be created individually for the student and provide visuals to aid them in relating to their past events. These are great instruments which can ameliorate problems with expressive language. Students on the autism spectrum tend to be visual learners, and this visual representation will help provide more structure and organization for them to better communicate their daily routine or past activities.
