Motor skills targeted: cutting and gluing
Communication skills targeted: following directions, requesting and commenting
First we went outside to gather leaves. We talked about the colors, how the leaves felt and also the weather. The leaves were already crunchy! When we got back inside and settled, the kids requested the color of paper they wanted. Next they glued on the hedge hog and then the leaves. I think the project would have worked a little better if the leaves were more flat and not as dry.
When we were all finished we had a few extra minutes so we read a book about fall leaves. Here are the finished products!
We work at an elementary school in Minnesota. We co-teach a group of 5 students who have cognitive and/or physical impairments. The students are either nonverbal or have limited verbal communication and use PECS, sign language or communication devices to support communication. This blog was created to show the activities and tasks we do each week to provide support services, meet IEP goals and have fun! ~Stephanie Mahal, OTR/L and Renae Christenson, MS CCC-SLP
