Steps to Success!

My Students

This is a separate school that serves students ages three to 21 with severe intellectual disabilities. Many of these students have concurrent challenges such as autism, blindness, deafness, or physical disabilities. Families find it difficult to take the children out into the community once they have returned home from school due to the transportation of wheelchairs and/or behaviors. Our focus is to provide opportunities for students to explore and develop independent functioning by addressing students’ individual needs. Through home, school, and community involvement, we create an educational environment to maximize student success. Being the Daily Living teacher, I am fortunate to see all 125 students each week. Many students require hand over hand assistance to complete an activity and most are non-verbal.

My Project

My classroom is a functional classroom with lots of daily living skills. The students are learning to perform skills such as assembly, housekeeping, office skills, and cooking.

The Step by Step allows my nonverbal students the ability to participate during the activities socially and academically.

During activities in my classroom, we have times where the student will assemble a given amount of items or need a particular amount to fill a container and the Step by Step can allow them to count out by pushing the switch. They are also able to participate in a recipe while cooking by activating the switch to tell what the next step would be or what item would be needed next.
