Package #2:

This editable lesson teaches children to make connected comments during reciprocal conversations. Simultaneously, children are taking turns, attending to peers, and following directions. The animations engage students and allow teachers to prompt/cue response over the computer.

Animation notes are provided in the "notes" section of the powerpoint. The number of clicks corresponds to specific colors on the spinning wheel. This allows the teacher to decided to structure turn taking in the moment to engage each learner. By clicking circle corresponding to the color wheel slice, the teacher navigates the group to a unique puzzle piece comment slide. Click the "back" arrow to return to the spinning wheel.

What is a puzzle piece comment slide? Students are show a puzzle piece with a (editable) comment or question on it. They must select from 3-arrays of puzzle pieces with distractor comments or questions to determine a "connecting comment." Statements on distractor puzzle pieces can be edited. When the teacher clicks the animations, the puzzle piece with the connecting comments answer will move and "connect."

This lesson is perfect for special education teachers, social skills teachers, and speech pathologists!
