Happy Tuesday Students, Parents, and Carers!

We began our day with some discussion on Chuck E Cheese's and Great White Sharks, participation in sensory diets, and Floortime (child-led play). Play is great for creativity, language arts and complex communication skills, abstract thinking, problem solving skills,  inquiry and mathematics skills, role-play and drama, fine motor skills, teamwork, and social skills.  

 Free Dance- is great for regulation, auditory processing skills, teamwork, social skills, sportsmanship, motor planning, body mapping, sequencing, gross motor skills, proprioception skills, vestibular and bilateral movements, and balance and coordination.

Mr. Avery was our teacher today and went over months, weeks, dates, days, year, weather, time (past, present/now, future), and feelings. This is a great opportunity to work on ideation and symbolism, abstract and complex communication, mathematics and the passage of time, social and life skills, and communication skills. 

Afterwards we used our reading skills, phonics and phonological awareness, segmenting and blending skills, grammar and spelling, printing and motor skills to fix Mr. Jacob's morning message, then discuss rules for Chuck E Cheese's. We also had to use our subtraction, addition, multiplication, and money skills to figure out costs, fees, and tokens for our trip!

Carter taking a break lol.

Math problem solving.

In gym today we played Soccer and Parachute games outdoors. Students had to work together and used their auditory processing skills, visual spatial skills, hand-eye coordination, teamwork, sportsmanship, motor planning, praxis, fine and gross motor skills, proprioception skills, vestibular and bilateral movements, and balance and coordination.

In the afternoon we had our fun Academic Field Trip to Chuck E Cheese's. Students used their life skills, social skills, two-way communication skills, complex communication skills, money skills, arithmetic, reading skills, and team work skills!

                                                                       Have a great evening! Mr. Jacob : )
