Good Day Plan

Think about what a good day at school or work looks like for you.  Do you need coffee?  Do you need to listen to music first thing in the morning or do you need some quiet time to start your day? Does it happen now? If not, what can you do to make it happen? Who can help you out along the way? The Good Day Plan helps you make and stick to a daily plan.

About the Good Day Plan

What It Is

The Good Day Plan is a simple tool used to help you identify the factors that play a role in whether or not you have a good day.

What It Does

The Good Day Plan allows you to view your day from beginning to end and helps you identify a structure/routine that enables you to have a good day. It gives you a backup plan in case something you had planned doesn’t happen as expected, and allows for better interaction with your network of support.

How To Do It

You and a teacher/parent/mentor visualize a good day and write down the steps to achieve it. Then, using the web app or following the template, create an action plan to make your good day happen more often. The Web app works on any internet-connected device or computer.
