Making Recess and Leisure Matter!
Concrete Strategies to Enhance Play Skills, Social Participation, and Carryover
COMING SOON!
Are you looking for an organized, effective way to support recreational skills and peer interaction during recess? Struggling with poor carryover of home exercise programs and seeking a more engaging alternative?
In this seminar, Sue will introduce 2 initiatives from Every Moment Counts, offering practical strategies, tools, and resources that you can download and immediately implement to promote your students’ motor skills, social development, and better carryover of home programs.
Sue will guide you through Refreshing Recess, a 6–12-week program designed to make recess more interactive and less passive. She will provide you with weekly lesson plans and activity resources to support your students’ fitness, recreational skills, teamwork, and friendships. You’ll also learn how to modify the program to meet the diverse needs of your students and collaborate with other school staff to amplify its impact. In addition, Sue will share the Making Leisure Matter initiative, which helps you identify your students’ leisure interests and coach them toward success. By replacing traditional home exercise routines with meaningful leisure activities, you can enhance skill development and improve carryover. Sue will also explain how to integrate this initiative into your interventions or deliver it as part of Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS).
By the end of the seminar, you’ll leave with a comprehensive toolkit of easy-to-use strategies and resources that will enhance your students’ motor and social skills during recess—and beyond! Closed Captioned in English
