What is a Group Plan?

 We are back at it with board games this month but with a little twist.  

THE GROUP PLAN:

The group plan to for student to understand what is going on in the classroom so they can stay focused and do their best learning.  

Do a lot of your students leave the classroom for speech therapy, extra reading support, OT, or even just going to the bathroom? How do they act when they come into the classroom after they are gone? 

When your student know the "Group Plan" using their eyes to look around the classroom.  It will also help them learn how to be in a group. Students will learn the expectations for a small group. 

Students are going to be in small groups for school many times. I want them to have a good foundation of how to be a good group member. 

You will see a pattern this month: 

Mondays: Read Aloud

Thursdays: STEM projects

Fun Friday: Board Games 

All of these will learn how to be in groups, regulate emotions, and learn how to be a good group member.

At this point in the school year having a schedule in my head on social/emotional activities will help me stay organized for the remainder of the school year.
