Behavioral Interventions and Solutions
Last month, I did a guest blog post for Especially Education. The topic was how to increase independence using task boxes in the classroom.

I love receiving positive feedback about my products. One educator recently submitted this question on TPT:
"I bought your visual game mats bundle and absolutely love it! I was wondering if you would be adding any additional games to it? I teach middle school and would love games like trouble, uno, bingo, yahtzee, etc. that are more developmentally appropriate for my class."
It got me thinking ... if one person is looking for visuals to accompany these games, others probably are as well. So, I decided to revamp my existing Board Game Visual Mats. I added four higher-level game visuals and shuffled the sets around.
You can now find this resource sorted into three NEW categories: Early Learner, Advanced Learner, or together as a Bundled Set.

I love the way the colors on these updated Pretend Play Cards pop!
Do you know a child who struggles with open-ended play activities?
Pretend play is a critical part of early development. However, it can be a difficult concept for many children, as it is made up of a variety of smaller skills.
For children to be able to engage in imaginative play, they need to utilize language, social, and problem-solving skills, in addition to flexible thinking skills. One way to scaffold this for children is to provide them with visuals, which support creative and FUNCTIONAL play.
Interested in adding a set of these cards to your playroom, classroom, or therapeutic sessions?

Back to reality after 11 days in Costa Rica! I am so appreciative that I had the opportunity to travel outside of the United States, immerse myself in a different culture and celebrate the marriage of a college friend. I saw unbelievable sights🌋, (almost) conquered my fear of spiders🕷, tasted new foods🥘, and reunited with friends that I hadn’t seen in years 👥. I’m sad that it’s over, but ready to get back to work! #biasbehavioral #teacherswhotravel #bcbalife #puravida
Heading to Costa Rica for the rest of the month. When I return BIAS will be celebrating it’s one year anniversary! Stay tuned for lots of exciting freebies and giveaways to kick off the month of August!
Love this list of takeaways for social skill instruction! Thanks Communication and Behavior Solutions for sharing!
