How to use Witchy Logic.


Drowning in lamination?
Try this technique to save both time and money:  Use page protectors or file folder pockets to protect the papers.  No photocopying or lamination needed as students are able to use dry erase markers and mark their answers.


Which witch?

You may use this activity on a wide-range of students.  The pix is a group of seventh graders.  They are able to work independently and I could check in and provide cues as needed.

Students checked their answers on the provided answer sheet and I had them work on Spooky Sentence Assembly if they were finished before their peers.  My learners then erased their page and passed it around to the next person.

Acorn Sequencing

My students and I have been having way too much fun with the Acorn Jewels this week.   They were a simple, quick craft which incorporated multiple goals of expressive and receptive language.  
We are lucky enough to have some beautiful oak trees on our school grounds so I brought my Life Skills group outside to collect them.  We then sequenced the steps to make these shiny treasures. 



I used the i-pad to video each group retelling the sequence and modeling of how to make the craft.  The next group was thrilled to watch their friends explaining the directions.  

Here are some fun ideas for the leftover acorn bottoms:


Click on the photos for the original links for the craft pictures.  The sequencing idea photo is my own.  Feel free to use for your therapy sessions. If you share please reference my blog post.  

Happy Fall!!!!
