Hello Parents and Carers!

Brrrrrrrr. It was a cold start to the week! But that did not stop the boys from having a very busy and exciting day.

One of our friends started the day completing his Sensory Diet, while Eric and I had fun playing a Math game. Shhhh Eric won. Don't tell too many people! Haha

Evan was teacher today and did a fantastic job playing me! Here we are going over our daily timetable and month/week/day/date/year.

Here we are going over our feelings and emotions as a group. The boys used hang-man, Mr. Jarrod used a stop light, and I used objects and colours to describe how we were feeling today.

Throughout the day we looked at time by using time lines, compromising different activities, a cellphone clock, different countdown timers, a practice clock, and a basketball time game. Here we are dividing up our activities and seeing how long we have in a certain amount of time.

Bing Bots- a fun numeracy and number sense, turn taking game involving Lego robots!

Slam Dunk Time Game- looking at both digital and analogue clocks.

Cooling off and making a tent in the Regulation Room.

Working on our phonics books- the boys had to make the sound, think of different words that have the sound, and then find pictures of things that contain the sound (e.g. /wh/ cutting and pasting a photo of a whale).

We had a lot of fun in Gym with our friends in Ms. Jessica, Ms. Hope, and Ms. Andrea's classes. Here we are playing Ship Wreck! Arrrrrr

Minute to Win It addition/ number finding game.

Partner Play with our friends in Ms. Jessica's class.

During the Sensory Gym the boys did some heavy lifting, pushing, swinging, and worked on their balance and coordination, hand-eye coordination, fine and gross motor skills, proprioception skills,and bilateral movement. 

We finished the day with a great session in Music Therapy!

Have a restful evening and see you tomorrow!
