A Group to Share Social Stories!!!

This group is to share your most successful boardmaker lessons and ideas that you have found successful with autistic students. The students can range anywhere from high functioning to low functioning. The group can share effective behavior programs and good social stories that have helped eliminate some of the behavior problems of autistic students.

This group recognizes that an increasing number of schools are enabling their staff to access interactive, white boards such as Smart Board and Promethium Boards to provide dynamic, interactive, and effective instruction through whole class and individual activities. The goal of this group is to provide a specific place for those individuals to find functional and useful Boardmaker Software Family activities that either were made specifically for these interactive, white boards or have been modified from their original form to be used on these boards. Group will be actively moderated by an Implementation Training Specialist from DynaVox Mayer-Johnson. Active discussion and posting of activities that members have made or found useful for interactive, white boards is encouraged. Please write a short description of how activity was/is used. Thanks!

Looking for activities to use with your middle school/high school students? Use thie group to find and share activities that are used with middle school /high school students. Also, please post in the discussion area what type of activities you are looking forward to finding in the group. Thanks!

The Harford County Public School System is one of the fastest growing in the state and one of its most successful. With the seventh largest school enrollment in Maryland, Harford County has seen its student population increase by more than 10,000 in the past 15 years to 39,175, a growth in excess of 33 percent. The enrollment increase has been fueled by a booming residential development in Harford County. Located along the I-95 corridor midway between the Baltimore and Wilmington/Philadelphia metropolitan centers, Harford County’s moderate tax structure, access to transportation, and progressive government has been attractive to business and commercial development as well. In addition, the projected impact of new residents expected when the Base Realignment and Closing (BRAC) is completed within five years, will increase school enrollment by thousands of students.
