The gift of time as a team is always one of my favorites before we head into winter break 🎁

And a cute theme makes it just a little extra special.

These student projects hold so much purpose. They give our kids a way to generalize so many discrete skills and help spread a little holiday cheer throughout the building.

Seeing the kids get excited about putting on their elf aprons and rocking the deliveries was the highlight of my day 🎅🏼✨

[@aacforall gets all the credit for these 3D printed communication devices! 😍]

I LOVE the fun activities the holidays can bring, but the spirit days, party days, assemblies, and schedule changes can start to feel overwhelming…for kids AND adults.

I don’t know about you, but we tend to love a good routine over here.

Here are some things we try to do to help our kids (and staff) adjust to the changes and enjoy the fun this time of year:
🎁 visuals-make icons to represent any new activities and have a general “special activity” ready to go for the inevitable last minute things
🎁 regulation tools- make sure your kids have access to sensory supports, break spots, fidgets…and remind them they are available! We might think “they know”, but a reminder can’t hurt when a routine is off. Unfamiliar visitors, large groups, change in locations can have big impacts!
🎁 talk about it!-make a social story or talk through the changes at morning meeting
🎁 listen to your students-if they are telling you or showing you a schedule change and/or special event is too much, listen and accommodate to the best of your ability. Schedule changes are an important part of life, but when there are multiple changes in a matter of days, it’s ok to sit one (or two!) out ✌🏼
🎁 think INCLUSIVE-what will make this more fun for EVERYONE?!
🎁 keep the rest the same-you may be skipping centers for a special assembly and it can be easily to get lost in the anticipation. Do your best to keep the rest of the day as routine as possible.

We are focusing on all things communication, functional, and FUN this week!

We are wrapping up our core words “get” and “give” this week, so this low-prep activity set will be fun to pair with our Christmas tree decorating.
