How to Use Picture Rule Cards in Shubert’s Classroom

The right hemisphere of the brain is in charge of self-regulation. Because the right hemisphere processes information in images, it is important to show children visual images of what acceptable behaviors look like.  Picture Rule Cards provide specific images of what children can do to be successful members of a classroom.

Picture Rule Cards consist of an image of a hurtful behavior and two images of helpful choices. This provides children with a clear “no,” plus two choices for positive behaviors that will maintain their commitment to the safety of the classroom. Photograph children demonstrating the two helpful choices and one hurtful/unsafe behavior. Mark through the hurtful/unsafe choice and then post each set of cards together in the appropriate areas. (Example: Post the lining up cards near the door.)

Tell children your job description. “My job is to keep you safe. Your job is to help keep it that way.” Begin a discussion of what would help them feel safe in the classroom. Then post Picture Rule Cards around the classroom near the locations where they will be used. (Example: Post the lining up rules near the door.)

For more information about visual rules, see Chapter 6 of the Creating the School Family book and Chapter 4 of The NEW Conscious Discipline Expanded & Updated book. Music that supports picture rules includes “I Gotta Go” on Brain Boogie Boosters.
