What Adaptations/Supplies are Needed?
For many of the activities, hardly any adaptations are needed, aside from asking caregivers to have certain (very basic) materials on hand for the session. For others, you may want to download the PDF that’s included in the post to screen share or print.
A few of the posts also include interactive online spinners or interactive Google Slides for the student/client to use during the session. Depending on which platform you’re using, some of the drawing activities can be completed using the “Annotate” or “Draw” feature, where the child can draw on the screen.
