Emotion sort - lonely, sorry, embarrassed
I work with a large population of students with autism and pragmatic language disorders.

I am in the process of creating several sorting lessons. This lesson is a sort of the emotions: lonely, sorry, embarrassed.
Here is how to conduct the lesson. You can vary this process to suit your teaching style.

It worked wonderfully. The children’s i

I created this activity to teach my high school special education students how to send a letter.

Picture symbols from Symbolstix accompany each step. The last page of the activity gives students the opportunity to practice writing the address and return address on a clearly labeled "envelope."
