    Description

    Tasks Galore Publishing Inc. was created to provide parents and professionals with practical tools that will aid their children and students to become more independent in school and in society. These tools emphasise structured teaching methods and parent/professional collaboration. The authors have extensive experience working with exceptional children and adults in their school, community, home and/or employment. They have also extensively trained healthcare and education professionals and parents around the world in Structured Teaching. There are five books in this series as follows:

    Tasks Galore – Book 1 (Yellow) – Early Education

    • Creative Ideas for Teachers, Therapists and Parents working with exceptional children
    • Full-colour pictorial series of multi-modal tasks used in programs for children with autism
    • Applicable to any early education or learning environment

    This book is the first book in the delightful Tasks Galore series. it takes a look at developing tasks that address skills across curriculum areas –

    • Fine Motor Skills: Pre-writing, writing, and computer skills
    • Readiness: Matching and sorting skills
    • Language Arts: Book, print and phonemic awareness, decoding and word recognition, comprehension, and vocabulary
    • Mathematics: Number sense, numeration, and numerical operations, spatial sense, measurement, patterns, relationships and functions
    • Reasoning: Concepts relating to the student’s environment: exploring materials, making predictions, generating attributes and using common objects
    • Play: Art, music, manipulatives, games and independent play

    Tasks Galore – Book 2 (Red) – For the Real World

    This is a valuable tool for preparing your older students, adolescents and adults for independence in the home, school, community and/or workplace. The Introduction section describes a process for developing and teaching functional goals. Forty-three colourful photo pages present task ideas in these categories:

    • Domestic Skills
    • Vocational Skills
    • Independent Living Skills
    • Job Sites & School Transition Ideas

    Tasks Galore – Book 3 (Blue) – Making Groups Meaningful

    This book aids teachers, parents and therapists in applying structured teaching techniques within classroom groups, school specials and even parties!

    Designing meaningful home and school group activities involve integrating IEP goals, individualising structure and communication and teaching rules.

    Tasks Galore – Book 4 (Green) – Let’s Play – Structured Steps to Social Engagement and Symbolic Play

    Tasks Galore Let’s Play, the fourth book in the popular resource series for parents, teachers, and therapists, utilises play as the program for learning. There is more and more evidence that direct teaching of play skills can increase young children’s symbolic understanding and, thus, have an impact on their imitation, language, and social skills.

    Beautiful colour photographs of children at play depict tasks that the authors have implemented successfully to enhance their students’ toy play, flexibility, and social interactions. Printable visual supports that will generalise to multiple learning situations also are included.

    Chapters demonstrate how routines, organisational strategies, and visual cues make play more understandable, so students can:

    • Share enjoyment
    • Use toys appropriately
    • Manage play-times
    • Make and end choices
    • Pretend
    • Play with peers

    Tasks Galore – Book 5 (Grey) – Literature-Based Thematic Units (includes accompanying Boardbook: I’m Hungry, I’m Hungry, what shall I do?)

    The fifth book in the popular resource series for parents, teachers, and therapists, integrates instruction across core curriculum areas by utilising multi-sensory learning.

    Using the accompanying storybook as a guide for creating literature-based thematic units, the authors have designed hands-on activities for use with young learners and students with special needs. The strategies employed encourage responsiveness to literature while enhancing vocabulary and language. Tasks illustrate how to make learning more meaningful by:

    • Using organisational strategies and visual cues
    • Connecting themes to everyday experiences
    • Adapting skills for 21st-century learning
    • Individualising for differing learning styles
