This word family unit on -est words was developed for students with autism and special learning needs. This unit has over 90 pages of activities and lesson plans for a one-week (or more) unit on spelling -est words. The activities comes with suggestions for differentiation so even non-readers can participate in the group lesson using the same materials. Many of the activities also use real photos AND picture symbols for more practice opportunities.

 

✩✩✩This unit is NOT for students with mild learning challenges who just need more support. This unit is for students who have SIGNIFICANT challenges but are required (and deserve) to access the regular education content.✩✩✩

 

✩✩✩ This unit has digital versions of the activities for more practice. There are 2 sets of slides; one set includes color-coding and the other supports differentiation. There is also a movie version of the book.

*****************************************************************************

Much of what I have learned about curriculum development is incorporated into 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.
