As school closures continue, we all need to find manageable ways to support instruction at home for our students in special education.  I can feel and hear the stress weighing on families and educators the longer this goes on, particularly for students in special education.

Fitting instruction into their day at home can be tough.  Especially since many parents are working from home and others are still working outside the home.  This is a long time to be trying to balance everything.  So to me, one of the most natural ways for families to teach and assure that students don’t lose their skills is to fold the skills into natural activities we would do at home.

I’ve heard from many of you, as well, that some of our students are not really enthused about having school work at home. Some engage in challenging behavior when presented with new material.  Integrating naturalistic instruction into the day may help to get around that issue as well.
