Hello Educators,
Morning Routine Symbols
I have a lot of visuals for routines but this one has to be my favourite!
I have created it 2 years ago because the class I had back then was obsessed with the months of the year and in order to teach them a sense of time we linked each month with a particular celebration e.g. December is Christmas, April is Easter, October is Halloween.
We also made a massive display in class where we split it in 12 months and 4 seasons and we were building each month with activities that we have been working at the time e.g. we put up our Halloween costumes photos on October’s column and the crafts of fireworks we made on November etc.
All the children that year had an idea about what to expect each month and with what celebration to link it!
This particular table was laminated and each of my student had one. They had to find the right pictures every morning and attach them with Velcro on the template!
I used posted notes for the date part where they could write the number with a pencil each day!
It was hard to create it and harder to laminate all of these symbols x 10, so each of them to have their own…but at the end it was totally worth it!
Instructions:
Print all three pages
Laminate them
Velcro the symbols on the template
You can organise it in small plastic pouches and give each child one pounch to find the symbols from it.
Use it as a morning circle routine or just to teach time/months/days etc. as a separetly lesson

Hello Educators!
· This are the 5 Power Point Presentations of the sensory days!
· You can print and use as display the last slide of each PowerPoint (info on Monday’s PowerPoint Presentation)
· Visuals are included and they are in two levels;
one in a format of a booklet (ALS Board for higher level) and
one with simple pictures that you can use as PECS style visual for lower level students.
· I have also included a 6th visual which can be used as a destructor or as Saturday.
· I used Colourful Semantics only for “when” and the “verbs” because I did not want to be overwhelming with colours, plus there is a different intention to this activity.
· It also includes INSTRUCTIONS of how to use them or adopt them.
· Includes an informaitonal document about sensory days to get ideas on your targets and planning!

Hello Educators,
Behaviour management today!
I love the emotional traffic lights! I may have not used the for years because of the nature of my current classes, but back in the days was a must!
In 2016 my students were obsessed with Inside out, so when I had to taught them about emotions, I used the characters from the movie to do so.
I do not have the same Template anymore in a digital form (I left it in my previous workplace) but I have put a picture of it to give you an idea how I used to use it! I know….it is too old (can you spot the yellow background on the symbols…. oh dear….). Anyway, my point is that I had anger, sadness, and joy as angry, worried and calm. I was moving the pictures of my students (or they were moving them themselves) on the relevant colour of the traffic light depending on how they were feeling/behaving at that time.
Three years ago, I have created another template (This I have it in a digital form!) and I have changed the sadness with fear to represent worried. I took that decision because I have noticed that a lot of my students started to built up their emotions when they were worried about changes, new people etc. so I though that fear was a better representation since they were not necessarily sad.
Once again, I was using the same system: moving their photos on the traffic lights (see my picture example).
I would recommend printing it in A3, so it will fit your students photos.

Hello!
This is a PPP about weather! Very simple one but useful as morning circle activities or as an introduction to Weather/Season Topic!
Please have a look at my Hot and Cold resources for more ideas!

Hello Educators!
I present you my HOT and COLD collection of PPP and resources!
The file contains 3 different PPP, which you can use separetely or as extention activitites for eachother and one word file with some background photos that you can use for sorting out activitite (look at the pictures and thubnails)!
I have used this lesson both to teach PSHE as well as Science (Topic was Weather/Seasons)! My children loved it because it gives you the opportunity to teach using actual items and sensory hands on resources which children love to explore!
PPP about hot and cold in general, which children can explore different sources of hot (such as a hairdryer) or cold (such as an ice cube). At the end I have a simple experiment of melting the ice.
PPP about hot and cold weather. It includes the differences between hot and cold weather as well as what sort of clothes and items (such as suncream) we need depending on the temperature!
PPP with all the visuals that you will need for the activitite or during the lesson.
Instructions of how to plan and run your lessons.
Examples with photos of how I used these resources in three different levels.
