📋 EA Field Guide (How to Implement)

🎒 Materials & Location

• Where are the physical tools stored? Laminated desk cue cards, dry-erase markers, ring binders.
• Digital links/files to print replacements:

🚶‍♂️ Step-by-Step Routine

1. Setup: Place the laminated cue card directly beside the math worksheet prior to starting the task.
2. Step Execution: Prompt the student to read step 1, execute it on the paper, and check off step 1 on the cue card with dry-erase marker.
3. Completion: Have student verify all steps are checked off before declaring the math problem complete.

🚨 Troubleshooting & Avoidance (When things go wrong)

• If the student skips steps: Point gesturally to the cue card without speaking to direct attention back to the checklist.
• What NEVER to do: Avoid giving competing verbal directions that contradict or skip the sequence on the card.
• Signs of frustration: Ignoring the card or erasing rapidly. Shorten the number of steps per card.
