The Round Table
I wanted to give you a visual of the "Round Table" I use for the majority of the lessons I teach. On this particular day we were painting Christmas ornaments, asking nicely to have one another pass the colors we need (I only put two of each color out on purpose so this would happen :-) and enjoying small talk, mostly initiated by me. We found out what each student was asking for for Christmas, a favorite gift they have gotten in the past and some of their family traditions. All while listening to "piano Christmas songs" my new favorite!
I need one of those! Your blog is amazing! I teach a high school special ed class for students with intellectual disabilities. Many of your suggestions and ideas can be used for my kiddos as well. I love the idea of tables instead of desks! Thanks for creating this blog...it's wonderful!
