Cross Curricula Workbooks

For students with moderate to severe support needs, we have 30 “Cross Curriculum Life Skills” Workbooks.  These Workbooks are suitable for students who have only a very limited attention span, who have not yet developed independent work habits and whose academic skills are in the earliest stages of development.  Each workbook is about 40 pages long.  These workbooks are not linked to specific topics of study at the high school level.  However, in very rare cases, students with extremely high support needs will continue to use these resources throughout high school.

Scaffolded Assignments for high school students working towards Learning Outcomes (Life Skills):

 

For high or (secondary) school students with mild to moderate support needs, we have over 90 specific topic scaffolded assignments.  Each “assignment” is about 6 to 10 pages, and covers a specific topic taught within the mainstream high school curriculum.  The language is simplified, the skills are approximately in line with middle primary (or elementary) school academic development.  All tasks are supported, adjusted and scaffolded to ensure the highest possible level of success.  The design and style of these “scaffolded assignments” is consistent with mainstream high school, so that the students feel comfortable using them.  These resources can be used as class work,  homework, assessment items, assignments, topic studies, small group tutorial work, 1:1 support, or even as “examinations”.  Students can work on them independently, with a peer tutor, with a teacher’s assistant, with a parent, or with a teacher.  Every “assignment” focuses on skill development outcomes from between 3 to 6 different areas of the high school “Life Skills” curriculum.  These “scaffolded assignments” can be used as a template for teacher’s to design similar assignments for topics not yet provided in our collection.
