Elmer is the focus of this read-aloud literacy unit developed for students in special education and has 7 activities to go with the book.

 

The materials are designed to allow students with multiple levels of learning to access and engage in lessons learned through reading Elmer.

 

There are many opportunities for students to engage in repeated information on how Elmer learns being different can be a good thing. This repetition encourages deeper engagement with the book.

 

Finally, many of The Elmer activities include more than one version, suggestions for differentiation, and presentation options. There is also a social story about waiting and what “just a minute” really means.

 

***This unit includes google slides that are digital versions of all the activities.

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, we can ask students questions that will push them to think more deeply than before.
