Mrs. Currier sends this classroom update:
We kicked off our Friday cooking activities with Rice Cake Owls! The students had a blast making—and tasting—something new while practicing important functional skills along the way. Our cooking activity focused on sequencing, following directions, peeling, counting, cutting, and spreading. What looks like a fun snack is also a great opportunity to build independence and everyday life skills!
We also had lots of fun practicing our Core Word of the Week: “GO!” Throughout the week, students wrote the word, built it with letter tiles, and practiced using it during meaningful activities. We pushed cars, practicing “STOP” and “GO,” and even ended the week with a STOP/GO dance party! Core words are a foundational part of communication for our students. We work to make these words meaningful by practicing them throughout the day, across different activities, and in ways that are fun and functional.
