Description
This unit on dot plots and histograms has over 100 pages of material specifically designed for students with special learning needs, especially autism who are in middle and high school. This unit mainly focuses on helping students understand, create, and interpret these two ways of displaying data. There are differentiated versions that use pictures and color coding. There are also hands on activities to give students practice creating their own dot plots with manipulatives. There are MANY opportunities for students to engage in repeated information on these very abstract and challenging concepts. This repetition helps students develop learning patterns. In addition, many of the activities and assessments include more than one version, suggestions for differentiation, and options for presentation.
See the preview for a more detailed look at the contents.

Much of what I have learned about curriculum development is incorporated in these units. For example, do not be afraid of repetition. It is critical that students with significant disabilities get to experience material over several days to be able to fully assimilate what is being taught. Also, adding visual supports to your printables and class activities helps students be able to pay more attention to the content you are presenting rather than the mechanics of what is expected. Finally, ask questions. Good questions!! Regardless of the material, if we can ask students good questions it will push them to think more deeply than before.

♥I am currently developing more units, and any feedback I get helps me make improvements in the future. Plus, it just means a lot to me.
