In a recent Clicker success story, AT Specialist Barb Lark mentioned that Clicker was used in Life Skills classrooms in Everett, Washington as part of the school district’s push to use Clicker to support students of all abilities. Life Skills courses often have an emphasis on communication and social interaction, health and self-care, daily living skills, and money management.
On LearningGrids, we have a lot of Clicker resources, such as the Brushing My Teeth and Getting Ready sets, that can support the development of life skills.
The Morning Routine Connect Set can be used to help students create a schedule for their morning activities. For some students, it may be more effective to use the Visual Schedule Clicker Board – including photographs can also improve their understanding and engagement.
Any LearningGrids resource can be edited to personalize it for your students, or you can also create your own Clicker Sets. Why not take photographs of the street signs in your community and easily build a group of resources to teach and reinforce students’ understanding of their meaning.
Photographs are also a powerful way to support daily living skills, such as doing your laundry. Clicker Sets can be valuable visual reminders of how to carry out the activity. The text in a Clicker Book can be made as simple or complex as needed.
