A note from the author:
I use this scheme of work my Drama class at a Special School and proved very popular and great for allowing the students to advance in their P levels. The students loved the characters, creativity and the sense of adventure. Will obviously need to be adapted for individual needs of the students.
Please do comment on my resources so that I can continue to update and expand them. If you need any more information/clarification please comment and I will update my resources ASAP!
Social story about the importance of wearing your glasses. Includes spaces to personalise the story with photos of the child wearing their glasses and of other people the child knows wearing their glasses.
The point of a social story is to use a patient and reassuring tone to teach children about social situations in a way that can be easily understood. Social stories can be useful for any child who is struggling to understand a situation or concept or needs help to understand a social skill or social cue, expectations, perspectives, common responses or is troubled about an upcoming event but social stories are particularly useful for children on the autistic spectrum for whom social cues can be challenging and who often suffer anxiety if they do not know what to expect from a situation.
These books should be used over and over to reinforce the point so I would suggest either putting the pages into a display book or laminating and binding them.

The resource includes a poster chart to help children understand the concept of good touch and bad touch, as well as a shorting activity to help them differentiate between the two. There is also a private and non-private parts shorting activity, which helps children identify which body parts are private and why it is important to protect them.

Additionally, there are 12 flashcards depicting various examples of good and bad touch, which can be used as visual aids to reinforce learning.
Overall, “Good Touch and Bad Touch Activity” is a valuable resource for educators, parents, and caregivers who want to teach children about personal safety and the importance of setting boundaries.

A training booklet describing many strategies for the most common additional learning needs I have come across in schools and FE colleges, including Autism, behavioural issues, hearing/visual impairments, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, handwriting difficulties and language needs. Each difficulty has at least 15-20 different strategies that I have found most useful in supporting my learners with additional needs.
Please note that these are not a one size fits all approach, and what works perfectly for one student may crash and burn for another! Like with most things in teaching, it is a trial and error process. However I have found these to be the most successful strategies for me so far.

Developing observation! Packed into this unit are 22 creatively illustrated lessons. Each boasts a drawing of a real-life situation complete with familiar objects. From “a visit to the ice cream parlor” to “a busy street corner,” students are given time to absorb the visual information from each picture. After putting the image aside, 12 questions are asked about what was depicted and students are asked to draw something they remember. Plenty of observation practice will be had by all as thinking and comprehension skills are given a workout.
A great sheet with child friendly questions. It's good to complete before SEN review meetings to help get the child's opinion of how things are going for them.
