Step Into My Sessions: Visuals to the Rescue: From Social Learning to Brittany’s Tides
Visual Supports: So helpful for our students, and for me, parking in Brittany where tides are massive!
I’ve been thinking lots about visual supports since I have a couple of speaking gigs next week, updating presentations to make sure they have my latest ideas 💡 – and visuals – for my audiences. One topic I often include is the power of games.🎲 ♟️
Learning new games can be challenging, even if they are super fun and cool. To support our students, remember those VISUAL SUPPORTS!
I know they can be time-consuming (and even annoying) to make, but those visual supports can make all the difference. Here are some of my favs:
Directions made visual 👀
so you aren’t always reminding students what various things mean, what the rule is, etc. I love cutting up directions. Then students can play more independently and succeed at more challenging games!
Painter’s tape ↘️
to show direction of play let’s students be more independent!
The Great Cheese Chase
Feeling Trackers 📊
to build student awareness of their uncomfortable feelings – those are part of playing a good game!
Taco vs Burrito
Catch you next time! 👋🏼
