I teach young people with social communication difficulties, including autism.
I have worked in both primary and secondary mainstream ARCs and also specialist provision and I love my job!

Subtract length from meters (bar models)
4 A4 sheets in total - 2 car parks and 2 sheets with corresponding cars. 1 activity is based on adding 10 to numbers from 0 to 10 and the other is based on doubling single digits.
A cut and stick activity. Learners are given the car park sheet and have to work out the sum and stick the correct car in the car park space. Sums are on the car park places, answers are on the cars.
I designed this for a Y2 learner with autism and limited motivation in maths as he loved cars. It did capture his interest and engaged him well. Other pupils who weren’t quite as fixated on cars still enjoyed the activity.
Also suitable for mainstream pupils working at this level, or older pupils with SEN.
Selection of 2D and 3D sheets which I have used as reuseable velcro tasks in my ASD classroom. Also suitable for use as cut and paste worksheets.
‘I can name shapes’ - 2 tasks, one matching shape to shadow, other is a shape labelling task. I laminated the main sheets whole, then cut out the shapes / shape names and added velcro. Learners match the name / shape to the baseboard. I have also left space on the baseboard for a strip of velcro to be added to keep the pieces together and ensure they don’t get lost when not in use.
‘real life shapes’ - picture cards of items which can be used in a range of ways, including sorting.
‘shape sorting - straight_curved’ - Another velcro task, laminate base board and pieces, pupils sort shapes by whether they have a curved edge or not. Also suitable to be used as a worksheet.
‘Shape colour and size’ - 2 x A4 pages. Page one has shapes which differ by colour, page 2 has shapes which differ by size and colour. I used these with SEN pupils in a range of ways, including as an attention and listening activity. E.g. “give me the red circle” (set 1) or “give me the big pink triangle”(set 2)
All activities also suitable to be made up for home learning, especially when repetition is helpful for learners with SEN.
Created for mixed age SEN class of children with autism, roughly following Y3 white rose scheme of work.
Children begin to explore grouping in 3, repeated addition, bar models, simple word problems (as my children particularly struggle with any form of worded question!) and drawing their own representations.
Base cards showing a food item and a price up to 20p. Learners need to find the matching card (showing British coins) to attach to the base card. Best laminated and with velcro attached.
14 cards to match (photo only shows 6 of them)
Two posters developed to remind pupils of presentation expectations for school work. Using a ruler for lines, writing and underlining date, marking own work in red pen, diagrams in pencil, etc.
General resource for secondary.
Christmas peg cards - cut cards and laminate, children count the number of items on the card and place peg on correct number. These could also be used as a worksheet with the child circling / stamping the correct answer. 8 cards in total, up to 12 items to count.
Christmas hundred squares - continue to develop number sense. Child identifies which number has been hidden by a Christmas picture. Includes 2 hundred square sheets and one fifty square.
