Rhyming Sensory Poem/Story on the theme of Spring
The activities in this unit of work are interactive and promote learners’ understanding of spring through sensory and communication activities.
The resources contain some real photographs so are appropriate for learners of older ages but can equally be used with younger children. Some are illustrations, but I believe could still be used with older age groups.
All the activities are easy to deliver and simple to resource. They will not require extensive looking for equipment/items as most are in cupboards and around homes.

Photo pack in PDF format using the images from the powerpoint.

Each sheet has a handy ‘assessment for learning emoji’ for learners to self assess as well as a final sheet for learners/assessors to make comments and to plan next steps.
The resource was originally used in a SEND school Post 16 setting but it could equally be used with entry level learners in a range of different contexts.
It is in WORD format to allow for ease of adapting to individual settings.
The booklet was designed to ensure the ASDAN unit was achieved however ASDAN were not involved in its creation.
I hope that it saves you some valuable time.
