Customer Spotlight: Homework Tracker
Heidi from Virginia contacted me last week to show me the homework tracker she created for her daughter. Heidi has been a customer for many years, and has sent me a lot of good suggestions over the years. I thought this homework tracker was a very creative way to use The Trip Clip® and thought others might find it helpful too.
Here are Heidi’s words about what she created:
“I have been a member for YEARS now…. started when my ADHD/Autistic/gifted boy was young, and now he’s old, and now using this with my ADHD/Autistic/Gifted girl to try to get her homework in order. [This] is a listing of my daughters ODD day and EVEN day schedules, with a space under each subject for her to write her homework in. Going to try this instead of the agenda the school gave her…. it may be less overwhelming.”

Free List: School Day Checklist
Kids with Anxiety, ADHD, and Autism can find it very comforting and helpful to have a clear checklist telling them what is coming next. This picture checklist from The Trip Clip® makes sure they know what the expectations are when they arrive at school in the morning, and can help them stay focused and on track.
There are lots of different ways you can use this depending on your child’s needs:
- You can print this list and hang it inside a locker or cubby as a visual reminder for your child.
- You can laminate it and use it with a dry erase marker. I like these markers that are small and have an eraser built in.
- You can also use The Trip Clip® to easily turn this into a VELCRO list with moving parts, and the ability to change the pictures and text as needed for different days of the week, or for special days that have an altered schedule (assemblies, art lesson days, substitute teachers, etc).
