The packing list is a portrait A4 shaped like a PE bag. Every item has a symbol and a box to tick. In Áigi Plan the template is called Packing the PE bag.

When the template fits

A PE bag without the shoes or the towel can make the whole lesson hard. The PE bag packing list shows everything to bring, item by item, in the shape of a PE bag. The template fits at home before PE days, and for someone who packs on their own but often forgets something. It can also go in the bag, so you can check after the lesson that everything comes home. Pictures can make a list easier to follow than text; more on that in our guide to visual supports.

Make the template your own

Swap the items for what your school needs, such as a floorball stick or swimwear. You swap symbols for others from the library or for photos of your own things. Print on A4 or save as a PDF, and hang the list where the bag is packed.

How to use it

  1. Hang the list where the bag is packed.
  2. Lay the things out and tick them off one at a time.
  3. Put a copy in the bag, and check it again after the lesson.
  4. Change the list when PE changes, for example to swimming or skating.

Tips

  • Pack the evening before, when there is no rush.
  • A photo of your own bag makes it easier to recognise.
  • Mark the PE days on the school week schedule.

What happens at PE is in the PE visual schedule. See also the school week visual schedule and all templates.
