The TATS Topic of the month is Lesson Planning.
The Lesson Planning section of TATS Rock Your Classroom provides helpful resources for developing strategies for incorporating supports into daily lessons and activities. Resources include examples of forms for lesson plans and daily schedules, along with examples of progress monitoring forms. Resources also include ideas for individualizing instruction and implementing classroom activities related to lessons.
The information in Lesson Planning is especially helpful for TEACHERS. Please register for the September Learning Community to join in a TATS discussion related to the topics included in Rock Your Classroom.
Following are resources related to helping children during events such as hurricanes:
- Supporting Children During and After a Hurricane (TATS brief)
- Supporting Families Experiencing Disasters (from Division of Early Learning – pages related to Hurricanes).
- Center for Disease Control (CDC) Factsheet: Helping Children Cope during Disasters.
The following important documents are included on each Informational page of Rock Your Classroom. These documents are useful in the development of IEP goals and objectives and in identifying and planning for individual strategies to support development and learning.
>>> TATS Talks about Supports and Adaptations (information related to implementation of varying levels and types of supports) and >>> ECTA’s Breadth of the Outcomes.pdf (examples of functional skills within the three child outcomes)
Check the TATS Calendar for upcoming opportunities for professional development.
