End of School Year Approaching

Hello!

It is that time of year again when the school year is about to end! All though this time of year brings excitement for the students many educators look for ways to fill in with extra tasks for transition times and quiet work because the end of the year also comes with extra testing for many students.

I have created various binder and matching tasks that help students with learning while providing independent task time while other students are completing their tests.

Please feel free to check out my latest products below as well as many others at my store to help add to your lesson planning and your students needs.

Thank you for what you do everyday in the classroom to provide for your students! Educators are a true blessing!

Hands on Learning

In recent years there has been so much focus on online learning especially during the times of the pandemic. While online learning is very useful the need to incorporate hands on learning is equally if not more important especially in the special needs community.

There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a student with certain challenges complete a task on their own. They feel a sense of pride knowing that they can complete a skill that they thought they never could do. It is amazing to present tasks to your students that give them a head start to understanding how things work, skills that are used at a job, and even skills needed around the home.

I found my passion working with students with special needs and providing tasks for them to help them be successful not only in the classroom but more importantly at home or on a job. One task I have in mind is an order filling task. https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Vocational-Customer-Order-Task-Verbal-and-Nonverbal-Version-4895773 

This vocational task helps the student learn important skills by filling orders for customers. I had students go on to work in hospitals filling patient tray orders to working in fast food helping to fill orders. Tasks that are hands on like this help them to receive the basics in following orders and filling them accurately.

I encourage you to provide as much hands on activities for your students. It gives them a sense of pride and accomplishment.

High Interest Tasks

Tasks that are of high interest to students helps the student to engage in the activity because it is something that they enjoy and will want to complete.

Some of the classroom favorites are my food related products. I for one am a fan of food and when presented in various ways, students can learn vocational skills, math skills, matching, etc. Peaking the students interest will help them to enjoy learning and to complete the task at hand.

Here are just two of the many tasks in my store that help with various skills:

Binder Price Matching Task-Mexican Meals

This product is great for following a menu and adding up orders to find the cost of the meal which is a great life and math skill.

I invite you to look at these products and more to help create interest and provide for your students educational needs.

Nonverbal Performance Tasks

Nonverbal tasks are beneficial in helping students that have verbal limitations by following visual aids to complete tasks both at home or on the job. To help complete things like chores and meal preparation, visual prompts help show how to complete the task.

For vocational skills, students can learn to fill orders, stock shelves, assemble products, etc. all by following visual task cards to complete the task.

Here is one of many products I have in my store to help with matching skills and following direction with the use of visual task cards and matching objects. Feel free to browse my other nonverbal products by typing the word "Nonverbal" in the product search box in my store.
