Sound Unit contains 80 pages of material specifically designed for students with special learning needs, especially autism. This unit on sound addresses the characteristics of different sounds in a simplified but rigorous way for students with diverse learning needs to make meaningful and authentic connections to the material. There are many opportunities for students to engage in repeated information on the different sounds objects and animals make. This repetition encourages true understanding of sounds. Finally, many of the sound activities include more than one version, suggestions for differentiation and options for presentation. Bonus: there is a social story on how to deal with sounds that may be too loud, a common issue for our students with autism and sensory issues.
