Tasks Galore: Making Groups Meaningful

Full color photographs help teachers, parents and therapists apply structured teaching techniques to classroom groups and school specialties (music, dance and physical education), as well as to home parties. Tasks Galore-Making Groups Meaningful, the third book in the Tasks Galore series, again draws on the authors' experiences as teachers and therapists with Division TEACCH. Wanting to make the lives of people with communication challenges richly rewarding, the authors detail the following: Applying structured teaching strategies; Individualizing skills; Establishing flow between one-to-one and group learning; Organizing curricula around themes. All of the above have helped them design successful group activities. Examples illustrate how students learn concepts, construct projects, make music, exercise and simply have fun in group settings. The authors have more than 65 years of combined experience working with exceptional children and adults in a variety of settings. They have extensively trained professionals and parents around the world in structured teaching.
