HOW DO CHILDREN BENEFIT FROM HAVING SMALL WHITEBOARDS AT HOME? As a qualified teacher I’ve experienced the huge benefits of mini whiteboards in the classroom. They can be used in countless ways from simply writing answers to a question to showing maths calculations or playing learning games to consolidate understanding. In a classroom, mini whiteboards are an excellent tool for ensuring active participation from all children. They also help teachers to spot any misconceptions that individuals may have. They allow for a teacher to correct these misunderstandings without their mistake being obvious to others in the class. In addition, they can be an alternative to verbally answering a question in class. This can help children who find putting their hand up to answer a question daunting, building their confidence and participation in the lesson. But what about at home? Is there a use for them here? Have a read here and see which whiteboards id recommend for at home https://senresourcesblog.com/2018/03/27/how-do-children-benefit-from-having-small-whiteboards-at-home/ Or google ‘SEN Resources Blog Whiteboard’ #senresourcesblog #whiteboards #learningresource #teaching #parenting #homeschool #homeed #unschooling #eyfs #preschool #nursery #childminding #send #specialeducationalneeds #primary

SALT DOUGH DINOSAUR BONES- HOW TO MAKE WITH YOUNG KIDS #linkinbio or Google The SEN Resources Blog This week we’ve had SO much fun making dinosaur bones from salt dough. A wonderful activity for young children either at home, school or nursery. * *please please remember salt dough is NOT for eating, it’s just for making. As with all our crafts and activities we do not accept any responsibility, please risk assess all activities yourself. We’ve previously made salt dough dinosaur ‘fossils’ which were a huge hit, not only with the kids but also across social media. Have a look at how we made Dinosaur Salt Dough Fossils here. Anyway, back to salt dough dinosaur bones! What do you need to make them? ....continue reading on our site. #senresourcesblog #sendblog #send #dinosaur #kidscraft #snaphappybritmums #fun #toddlerlife #teachersofinstagram #eyfs #earlyyearseducation #letthembelittle

CHOOSING AN EDUCATIONAL BOOK ABOUT AUTISM- WHICH ONE IS FOR YOU? I review a lot of books on the SEN Resources Blog and as a result I am often asked for my recommendations of books; particularly educational books that teaching professionals can use to further their understanding of Special Educational Needs. One such area that many teachers want to develop their understanding of is autism education. So over the last couple of months I’ve been reading three very brilliant, but very different books about Autism in Education. My aim being to share with you what each of these books covers and help guide you as to which book is for you (…if not all of them!) The three books I’ve had the pleasure of reading recently have been: Teacher Education and Autism: A Research-Based Practical Handbook Inclusive Education for Autistic Children: Helping Children and Young People to Learn and Flourish in the Classroom Education and Girls on the Autism Spectrum (*Please note we were provided with review samples of these books and this post is sponsored. All thoughts are opinions are our own) Continue reading on The SEN Resources Blog #linkinbio or Google us! #senresourcesblog #send #sendblog #autism #asd #specialeducationalneeds #specialneeds #autisticgirls #inclusion #education #teachersofinstagram #specialneedsmum #specialneedsdad #specialneedsparent
