# Gentle Reminder Script This script provides gentle, step-by-step prompts and praise phrases for each personal care task. Use these cues to guide the student through each step and reinforce their success. ## 1. Brush Your Hair Teacher says: “Okay, let’s brush your hair! First, use your fingers to divide your hair into sections. Then pick up your brush and gently start at the roots, brushing down toward the ends.”

If the student gets stuck or rushes: “Let’s slow it down and start again at the roots. Nice and gentle strokes.”

Praise after success: “Great job! Your hair is looking smooth and tangle-free!”

## 2. Wash Your Hands Teacher says: “Now we’ll wash our hands. Turn on the faucet, wet your hands with warm water, and get your soap ready.”

If the student forgets soap or time: “Remember to pump the soap once. Let’s count out loud to 20 while we rub our hands together.”

Praise after success: “Fantastic! Your hands are all clean and fresh.”

## 3. Wash Your Face Teacher says: “Next, splash some warm water on your face. Put just a little cleanser on your fingertips, and gently massage in circles—avoiding your eyes.”

If the student rubs too hard or gets soap in eyes: “Remember gentle circles and keep the soap away from your eyes. Let’s try again softly.”

Praise after success: “Wonderful! Your skin feels nice and clean.”

## 4. Brush Your Teeth Teacher says: “Finally, let’s brush our teeth. Squeeze a pea-size amount of toothpaste on your brush, and let’s start brushing in gentle circles on all your teeth.”

If the student misses spots or rushes: “Make sure to brush the front, back, and top of each tooth. Keep going until our two-minute timer is up.”

Praise after success: “Great work! Your teeth are sparkling clean.”
