Look around you. Everywhere you look you see a sign or a symbol indicating something. Do you know what it means, though? Special signs, symbols, and directions are encountered in every area of our lives. They provide us with information and tell us what we can and cannot do. Knowing what they mean is essential. Knowing them is even more essential for students who are trying to expand their knowledge outside the classroom into the “real world.”
This binder presents 160 words and symbols that students may encounter in the “real world.” Glossary pages feature 160 words about safety, mobility, restriction, and information. Separate from activity pages, they provide a handy reference list of terms to use with the book’s skill sheets or other assignments on signs and symbols. Activity pages offer repeated use of the words in different contexts. As students work their way through the exercises, they will gain knowledge that will allow them to become more confident and independent in the “real world.”
This program also includes 94 full-color flash cards. The bold graphics and simple, easy-to-understand definitions make these ideal for students of all ability levels. A must-have addition for any life skills class.
On the included whiteboard-ready Resource CD, are all activities and the flash cards in PDF format. As well as a skills charts, a skills tracking spreadsheet, and 17 bonus activities.
SOFTWARE
Help low-level and nonreaders recognize essential, everyday signs. Four different activities help strengthen students’ knowledge of 75 common signs and symbols. Activities include matching pictures to written cues, or for limited readers, matching signs and symbols to spoken cues. Students then “flip” each sign to learn its meaning and common locations.
A dynamic quiz option tests student comprehension and keeps interest high. Bold graphics and simple, easy-to-understand definitions are sure to appeal to students of all ability levels. Daily work can be saved, showing progress over time. Also print activities and picture-based lists for additional practice.
