Counting Up Rockets
For a very young child, rockets hold a lot of fascination. Often this is the first way a child might learn to count backwards. However, a student with a disability may not be able to reverse the process. "Counting Up Rockets" gives a student a chance to learn to count to ten in order and work on numerical sight words and writing.
To make this activity successful, you will need:
1 hand out of 16 pages per student (or copy half sheet size)
crayons or color pencils
pencil
scissors
glue

Bill Counters
Much like our coin counters, bill counters seek to teach students bill combinations. Using up to 2 different bills and demonstrating a pattern for counting, students with disabilities in grades 7-9 have found these mats to be useful. Students have later demonstrated their ability to count bills correctly without use of mats.
Suggested: print out each page on thick paper or place in sheet protectors to increase longevity of each mat.

Clock Schedule
For students who have anxiety around the different schedules that happen during the day, we have found that incorporating visual time helps cut back some anxiety. This also helps teach "How much time until" with reflection on the current time. Given both digital time and analog time, students can work on math/life skills to work on their anxiety.
Suggested: print out on thick paper and house in a clear plastic sleeve or laminate for durability. Use white board markers to write and remove with e

Teaching style
I'm the one that sort of sits back and watches things happen and tries to course correct as the day goes. I'm looking for ways to implement adaptations in a general education classroom and facilitating social interactions with the best technology solutions possible.
