My Project

My students with autism have various skills and domains they need to work on to succeed. Following a routine and increasing independence is essential for my students to learn. Task boxes allow me to create activities geared to personalized needs.

The materials in this project, ink, laminating paper, and pom poms will allow me to create fun, vibrant hands-on activities.

Within these boxes, my students can work on math and ELA skills, and practice and strengthen their fine motor abilities. Students will be given a visual schedule to follow in order to complete their tasks.
