Today in our social language group, we had a lot of fun using umbrellas! The main idea we were targeting was the preposition 'under.' The first activity was a book that I created called "Who Is Under The Umbrella?" We passed out pictures of different animals or people, and students took turns putting the cards under the umbrellas on the pages. You can get this FREEBIE by clicking here: Who Is Under The Umbrella? Please leave feedback if you like it. The next activity we did was to create little umbrellas for a bulletin board that the school social worker is going to make outside of her room. The umbrellas were made out of coffee filters. We had the students decorate the filters with Do-A-Dot markers. Then, we folded them in half, punched a hole in the bottom and added a pipe cleaner handle. I think they turned out really cute! The bright colors of the activities today really got me excited for spring! I will definitely take some Apr...

My students had so much fun with my Secret Code Inferences, that I knew I wanted to make another activity using that format. In the spring, my fourth and fifth grade teachers start to focus on idioms. These are really difficult for some of my students, especially those with ASD. They are so literal! I made Secret Code Idioms for these students. There are 24 different idioms targeted in this packet. Each idiom is presented three different ways: 24 cards with the idiom listed and a secret code answer 24 cards with the idiom listed and a choice of three answers (secret code to check answer) 6 worksheets with four idioms listed and a space to write what the idiom really means. There are also secret code answers available on the worksheet so students can check their answers. I hope you like these activities! You can find Secret Code Inferences at my TpT store HERE If you like what you see, please follow my Teachers Pay Teachers store and on Facebook h...

Secret Square is a game in my cabinet that I have had I think since I started as a speech path in the schools. It looks like it is out of print, but I thought some of you might have it hiding in your closet or cabinet too! I am attaching a couple of pages of pictures that you could print off and use in the same way as this game. Basically, this game is a set of 96 tiles with different object pictures on them. It also has 25 chips. The directions of the game say to choose 25 squares, at random. Place the squares face up, in 5 columns of 5 rows each (I used 36 chips in my example). You then pick a "Hider" who places a chip under one of the squares for all of the "Seekers" to try and find. Players then start asking "Yes" and "No" questions about the squares to discover which square hides the chip. Seekers may only ask questions that can be answered by "Yes" or "No". For example, Seekers may ask: "Is it a fruit?&...
