Laminated visual supports are widely used by professionals and parents of diverse learners to facilitate tasks including physical activities. They help decrease anxiety and rigidity surrounding transitions and communicate visually what is expected.
On the other hand, visual supports come with different challenges. It takes time to create, organize, find and set them up in the desired sequence. They can’t be easily modified or shared with the staff and parents. For all these reasons, professionals and parents don’t invest effort into creating them regularly which would greatly help children to participate.
Smoothclass is an online visual scheduler designed for coaches and therapists working with children who need extra support. By handling activity schedules and time tracking, it frees them to focus on what they love most, teaching and connecting with students. Custom visuals keep students stay engaged and help them transition smoothly between activities. Organizations can easily share lesson plans, improving staff alignment and overall program quality.

Great application that helps facilitate at-home activities with all family members! Very easy to use! My son (age 11) loves picking his own class, favorite skills and then he's ready to go.
This application has greatly improved my ability to organize my own classes and share the lesson plan with my students on screen. It has helped me develop a more professional and streamlined aesthetic in my virtual sessions as well.
Smoothclass helped me and my son stay engaged in the class and eager for the next exercise. The easy to use interface provides an immediate reward for a job well done and the visual cues keep us on task. Smoothclass made training fun for both of us.
