Today’s story is about Danny and the ways he gets help so he is able to follow the directions. First by asking the teacher and focusing and then by using self-talk

Wednesday 10/21 - Skill Building Activity #1: Walk around your classroom or do a movement in place while you self-talk through how you are doing it. Then have the students practice their self-talk while they attempt to imitate the movements. (For students who do not have the language development focus on attending behaviors and movement imitation while you or a TA repeat the actions as they do them).

Thursday 10/22 - Skill Building Activity #2: Do Not do the exact activity on card due to sharing limitations. Modify by putting some objects, toys, shapes, colors, in a bin/bowl in front of students to try to have the same objects in each container and you could have student practice using self-talk while repeating the object you tell them to take out of the container. Another way could be to use a bingo game in your classroom and have students practice using their listening rule, attention scopes and self-talk to help them play. As you direct them what picture they should put a marker on they should use their self-talk to repeat what picture they are looking for. For students who do not have the language development focus on attending behaviors and matching skills while you or a TA repeat the word for the picture, they should be looking for on their bingo board).
