Frequently Asked Questions

In developing this product, we have worked with a number of  families.  Here are some
of the questions we've encountered.

For what age range is the On·Task On·Time for Kids best suited?

This product was designed for children grades kindergarten through 5th grade, although
some younger children and some older children have also used
On·Task On·Time for
Kids
successfully.


What if I want to change the routine after I've put the stickers on the disk?

The stickers have repositionable adhesive and can be removed and reused.  Just peel the
sticker off the disk, and place it in the new position.


What if there isn't a sticker for the task I want?

Blank stickers are included in the basic package, so you can make your own tasks using
a permanent marker.


My child says that the sound of the timer ticking makes him nervous.  What
should I do?

If your child is anxious about the sound of the timer ticking, try a few days without
activating the timer.  Just place the Routine Disk on the
On·Task unit, and all the tasks
will be displayed in the order to be completed, but your child will not need to worry about
the ticking.

There are certain days of the week that my child needs special reminders,
but it is not every day.  How do I include these reminders?

The whiteboard was included just for these special days.  You can write special notes or
reminders with the included dry-erase markers.
