This week in life skills we are getting back into the swing of things since 
the Holidays! We jumped right into a Farm Theme week...First up was talking about 
how farmers help us and what type of animals are found on a farm. Then of course we 
had to take a survey of who liked Chocolate milk, White milk and Strawberry milk
...Can you guess which flavor won?!
  LOL chocolate was by far the winner!!! 
               I'm planning on having the guys make chocolate milk on Thursday for our cooking day.              We have also made several crafts such as making sheep with cotton balls and then 
          making  cows from a paper plate. Today is hump day and we have made dirty little pigs!! 

Such fun we have in life skills....






                                                 This is some of our dirty pig projects!

I did a little shopping at the Dollar Tree & got these 
Magnet letters & a cheap cookie sheets for the guys
to practice spelling their sight words on. 

We also have these cool tables that my boss purchased 
For our room that have a dry erase top to use with dry erase markers!! 
The guys thought it was neat to draw on the tablesπŸ˜€ 

                                                                    🍎-Greta

The cookie sheet ended up being perfect 
For use with our magnet building set also!

Have mentioned how much I love my laminator?
Seriously it's amazing for little projects like this...
I printed off some coffee mugs online then just colored and numbered them
ran them through the laminator & now I have cute coffee mugs 
for counting!

I got these bulletin board signs in a pack at Dollar Tree for $.25!
I again ran them through my laminator & I can use them for multiple 
signage in my room! 


Made this fishing activity with construction paper, my laminator and magnets! 
The guys loved going indoor fishing & we were also learning counting, 
  color sorting & practicing hand eye coordination



This I made for my life skills room from a cheap little 
sticker set at the Dollar Tree. All I had to do was run everything through 
my laminator & ta-da I have a long lasting Recycling activity! 
This really helps the guys with learning another life skillπŸ˜€
