The Saturday Roundup!

Saturday again?!? Where is this month going?  Today it is cold, cloudy, and sometimes rainy in southwestern PA, so we are going to spend the afternoon at the museum.  For the first time in years, our son is going to accompany us on an outing.  Why, you ask?  It's all due to the influence of a girl!  He has done more with us this year than ever since he began dating his girl.  Maybe they will let me get a picture today to share with you.  Can you tell I'm ridiculously excited that he is coming with us?

So let me start up the roundup by revisiting a product I already blogged about, the Autism Friendly Puzzle Token Charts.  I revamped them a bit by adding quarter-page size puzzles so they would fit better on the desks of the students you would need to use them with.

Have a few kids with specific behavior issues that need to be addressed? Try one of my puzzle token charts. I'm currently using them with two of my kiddos, and it's working quite well.

I recently finagled my son's tablet from him -- mentioned that I was thinking of buying one, and he said I could have his. I didn't want to just take it, and he always needs money, so I gave $100.00 for it -- and I plan on letting these two guys use some carefully selected apps as a reward when they fill their token chart. Both are currently on the 12-piece token chart, one to encourage finished work on time, and one to encourage in-seat, on-task time.
While you're at my store, if you need some Earth Day activities, be sure to check out the Earth Day story and poetry activities.  I'm so excited to use them Monday with my kids

Now, on to the rest of the roundup!  This Saturday, Mr. Hughes has his Share the Wealth freebie linky going on.  You're sure to find something there for the next few weeks of lessons!
