Social Crew Club

With spring in bloom all around us, the April social crew students came together to learn about plants and how they grow. While communicating and sharing their ideas with each other, they agreed on the proper steps to give each plant the best chance to flourish. As a group, the students then found all the materials they would need, decorated their pots, and planted their very own flower to care for and watch grow! We encouraged the groups to engage with each other through helping each other pot their plants, requesting materials, and sharing what they were doing. The students were all able to bring their plants home and tell their families all about how to care for them!

Fun with Flavours!

In April, the students all made ‘Ants on a Log’! There are different variations of this easy recipe, but for Fun with Flavours we used three ingredients: cheese whiz, raisins and celery. Since these ingredients differ in terms of taste and textures, therapists encouraged students to explore each of them using sight, smell, touch and finally, taste. After the exploration stage, if tolerated, the therapist encouraged students to follow the step-by-step instructions to build the ‘Ants on a Log’.

Some of our young chefs were encouraged to build a scene using the available materials to illustrate where ‘Ants on a Log’ would be.
