A game I made for my small class of learners with autism. Suitable for any small group introduction - e.g. intervention group, speech and language, attention and listening. Learners throw a dice and move around the board. When they land on a question, they answer the question. I like to ask another member of the group a question relating to the answer, to encourage learners to pay attention to each other's answers - my children tend to have very little interest in each other! Supports social skills, attention and listening, turn taking. Used for specialist autism group but appropriate for any mainstream KS1 / KS2 group or older SEN group.

A resource I made for a mixed group of ks1 / ks2 children with autism / social communication needs. Aim is to develop greater understanding of feelings and to begin to develop awareness of other's feelings, also turn taking and attention and listening. Resource includes a feelings poster and 18 cards describing situations that have happened to an imaginary child - e.g. 'She has a wobbly tooth'. We discuss the various feelings an how children are feeling today. Cards are placed face down and children take turns to turn cards over. They consider how the person may be feeling. More able groups could be prompted / questioned to consider would everyone feel that way in that situation (some people can't stand having wobbly teeth, others get excited...) further developing theory of mind and understanding that people can feel differently about situations.

Editable emotions check in used for daily PSHE to support children in developing their understanding of emotions. This resource is linked into the Disney film Inside Out. Can also be used with Thrive.

The 26 Emoticon/feelings cards are an ideal way to help your children to express their feelings or to recognise facial changes and read expressions. By using the ‘emoticons’ which children now understand through texting, social media and other sources, you can make an up to date version of ‘faces’ cards and children feel less conspicuous carrying them around. Print as large cards for home/school use and in a pocket sized version on a wrist twist which easily fit into a pocket or onto a key-ring. ​ ​​These cards are great for discussing how other people feel, exploring body language and facial expressions These are also available to purchase professionally made on a keyring from my Ebay store £4.99 inc delivery.

This unit of work is several weeks for your TA to deliver for a small group of pupils. I have written it for children who need to develop friendships and friendship skills. I hope you find it useful. A TA can pick this up with no explanation or support and should be able to deliver with just an hour or so to familiarise herself, print resources etc. I have also made a game in case your school doesn't have friendship type games. Enjoy your weekend. I hope it saved you some time and energy and that your children learn some friendship and social skills. Thank you for buying from me. I would appreciate a friendly review as I have kept the cost down, please bear in mind the amount of work when you leave my review.
