3D Hot Air Balloon craft - All About Me, Transition, New Class, SEN, KS1, KS2

(0)
4 oval shapes for learners to draw - self portrait, things I like, my family, what I want to do when I grow up. When these are finished, ovals should be cut out and folded in half. Two halves should be stuck to one oval - making a 'cross' type shape when viewed from above. Apologies for my rubbish description! String can then be used to attach the 'basket' to the hot air balloon. A lovely 'getting to know you' craft for the beginning of the school year. These look nice strung in a line across a window.

Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch, seaside topic, KS1, SEN, ASD

(0)
This is a pack of Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch resources I have used during a seaside topic with a mixed aged (KS1 / KS2) group of learners with autism. It includes a planning sheet to think about the lighthouse keeper's cottage, differentiated TEACCH style structured sheets to support writing about the Grinling's cottage, and images of the cottage for pupils to stick in their books before writing about the cottage. There is also a word mat to support spellings and jog memories. There is a mindmap type sheet to encourage pupils to reflect upon what the Grinlings thought about the naughty seagulls. There is a symbol supported powerpoint about lighthouses and a lighthouse fact sheet for children to complete. There are also differentiated grammar sheets for learners to decide whether to use 'and' or 'but' in a sentence.

Sharing a Shell, ASD / SEN / EYFS / KS1. Basic literacy / position

(0)
A few resources from when we read Sharing a Shell. I teach a mixed age primary class, all with autism attending specialist ASD provision. Ability at the time ranged between P4 and approx Reception / Year 1 level. Resources are also suitable for mainstream learners working at this level. Download includes: Sharing a Shell book review - A4 sheet, learners identify who is in the story, where the story is set and what happened 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Sharing a Shell LA - position activity for my lowest ability learner, I used this with the child working 1:1 with a TA, discussing the picture and seeing if the child could identify ‘where’ (TA reading the sentence) Position Sharing a Shell - 2 near identical worksheets for children to write the appropriate word in the gap. I can draw… - these were to encourage mark making / fine motor skills. Frame with a prompt picture of the characters in Sharing a Shell. 3 x A4 sheets. Who words dotted - We did a lot of narrative and colourful semantic work in English lessons. This activity was to reinforce / generalise understanding of ‘who’ and to develop mark making / handwriting / recognition of character names (more able).

Similes, introduction. SEN,

(0)
I made this resources to introduce similes to a mixed KS1 / KS2 group of students with autism. There is a mindmap used to introduce the idea - think of something which is white. Children used these to complete sentences I wrote on the whiteboard (we were reading The Little Polar Bear). There are 2 worksheets for children - identify a simile from a choice of 4 names pictures. There are a final 2 sheets using a visual mindmap to suggest alternative words for ‘cold’ and ‘worried’. Saved in PDF and in Publisher. Used in primary but also suitable for SEN / KS3.
All About Me Game, transition, new class

All About Me Game, transition, new class

(0)
A game I made for my small class of learners with autism. Suitable for any small group introduction - e.g. intervention group, speech and language, attention and listening. Learners throw a dice and move around the board. When they land on a question, they answer the question. I like to ask another member of the group a question relating to the answer, to encourage learners to pay attention to each other's answers - my children tend to have very little interest in each other! Supports social skills, attention and listening, turn taking. Used for specialist autism group but appropriate for any mainstream KS1 / KS2 group or older SEN group.
Christmas Interactive Book, ASD, S&L, SEN, KS1, Colourful Semantics
jlp76jlp76

Christmas Interactive Book, ASD, S&L, SEN, KS1, Colourful Semantics

(0)
An interactive book I designed for pupils with ASD but also suitable for learners with Speech and Language Difficulties, SEN or KS1. Colourful Semantics support understanding of who / doing / what questions and also supports understanding of sentence structure. I make up the book by laminating whole pages. I then print off an additional copy of the who / doing / what pages, then chop and laminate these as individual cards. I add velcro to the whole page who / doing / what sheets and use these as a baseboard for the individual cards. I also add velcro to the who / doing / what table underneath each picture. The book can be assembled with a keyring / treasury tag. Keep the who / doing / what sheets separate so the child has them to refer to when looking at the picture. It’s simpler than I’m making it sound! I have used this type of book both as a one to one task and as an independent TEACCH task.

STEM Lego challenge cards, some Christmas themed. SEN/KS1

STEM Lego challenge cards, some Christmas themed. SEN/KS1

(1)
Lego challenge cards, symbol supported for non / early readers. Some are Christmas themed as I’ve just made them to try and keep my children busy during this last week. Children choose or are given a card which gives an instruction - e.g. build a Christmas tree / first letter of your name and use Lego to build as instructed. It’s a fairly open ended activity but my hope is to provide more structure and purpose to play for my children with autism as some have very short attention spans and flit from activity to activity without any meaningful engagement. 24 cards in all, best printed onto card or laminated so they last.

Feeling peg cards - emotional literacy. Autism / SEMH /SEN

(0)
Cards giving a selection of situations, child uses a clothes peg to select the answer. Best laminated so resource is more durable. I use these with children who have autism but also suitable for KS1 or children with other SEN / SEMH needs. Can be used 1:1 or in a small group. Some of the answers I’ve had have surprised me, even when I know a child well - I’ve found this quite an interesting resource to get to know my pupils in most depth.

Victorians - Queen Victoria's Life. Structured PowerPoint and accompanying worksheet. SEN, ASD

(0)
This is a PowerPoint used to teach students about Queen Victoria as part of a Humanities topic. As students all had autism, it is highly structured to ensure pupils were aware of what the lesson involved and what they needed to do. This reduced anxiety for several very anxious pupils. Independent working is stressed as this was a development point for the group in question. Taught to Year 7 pupils with social communication difficulties, including autism, as a general'Humanities' lesson. Speaking, listening, classroom and social skills were prioritised. Also suitable for older / younger students. PowerPoint is editable.

Theseus and the Minotaur storyboard

Storyboard - designed for children with autism to reinforce their understanding of the story. Children sorted the order of the text as a group before drawing their own accompanying pictures. With my group of children (mixed aged KS1/KS2) I kept the text on the worksheet but I have included a publisher version so this activity could be adapted to a cut and stick activity, or children could write their own sentences.

(0)
I used these as a TEACCH workstation task in my autism classroom to support my learners reading skills and comprehension, together with their reasoning skills. Cards include topics such as facts, pronouns and prepositions. Learners identify yes or no by attaching a clothes peg to the correct answer. Alternatively, if laminated using gloss laminating pouches, they could circle the correct answer with a whiteboard marker.
