Tasks Galore: Let's Play

Tasks Galore - Let's Play, the fourth book in the popular resource series for parents, teachers and therapists, utilizes play as the program for learning. There is more and more evidence that direct teaching of play skills can increase young children's symbolic understanding, thus having an impact on their imitation, language and social skills. Beautiful color photographs of children at play depict tasks that the authors have implemented successfully to enhance their student's toy play, flexibility and social interactions. Printable visual supports that will generalize to multiple learning situations are also included. Chapters demonstrate how routines, organizational strategies and visual cues make play more understandable so students can: Share enjoyment; Use toys appropriately; Manage play times; Make and end choices; Pretend; Play with peers.
