Over the last 2 weeks, we’ve been setting up a #CollaborativeArt project for our students to enjoy over this last week of school. We set up a “feather station” where students and teachers have been hard at work bringing their creativity to life! @HELPISKL #HIS_Learning

[HIS Learning Support Department @HIS_INCLUSION]

Not only has this provided opportunities to practice fine #MotorSkills (especially important after repeated lockdowns), this project helps us teach and talk about the importance of #collaboration, #diversity, and #inclusion. A massive thanks to Mr Fatah of the DT Department!

A little festive cheer as an eventful term draws to a close very soon! We had a lovely team lunch and then a photo in our awesome #SensoryGarden - Happy Holidays!

“Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success.”

We’re getting a little help from the very talented Mr. Fatah for our End of Term Collaborative Art project!

Check out our little Sensory Garden Crew, making sure our plants are happy during their break time! @HISYear6 @HELPISKL

Our #SensoryGarden has been relocated and is looking absolutely gorgeous! We have recruited a keen team of student volunteers from @HISYear6 who will be caring for this space - can’t wait for more students (and staff) to enjoy it!

A great article on leveraging #UDL to help learners in meaningful ways!

"Incorporating universal design into our classrooms allows #neurodiverse students to work with their strengths and creativity to learn new material, develop new skills, and stay engaged."

"Kids have been hearing about loss and trauma a lot lately, and have a new vocabulary. Coronavirus, pandemic, quarantine, lockdown."

They also have new routines - sanitizers, masks... Great tips for reducing impact!
