I’ve used symbol communication in all of the powerpoints and most worksheets to aid understanding for SEN & ASD students or students with low level literacy skills. This was originally made for a year 7 & 8 class, with Year 1, year 2 and year 3 levels in literacy, so the resources aren’t too wordy and what they need to do is made really clear.

This was for a small PSHCE lesson for Year 7 students. It’s brief, and doesn’t go into too much detail but has a drawing task, and you can make a sensory task (I just used a box and cut a hole in it), to keep them engaged. It has links to the NAS website, which is for 2018 but can be updated, and to a youtube clip about the creator of Pokemon, which some students might like.

These are some sensory activities to use as starters or during tutor time. They have been selected and designed for students with learning and behavioural needs. I've also uploaded a script for one of the activities, just to provide an example but when you're doing the activity the story theme could change so you need to be flexible. From experience they can help students be more creative in their lessons, it builds social skills between groups of students and can help them regulate their emotions. Can be used and adapted for all ages but was originally designed for secondary and post 16 students.
