World Autism Awareness Day Activity Pack

I love creating NO PREP activities when I can for my French teacher peeps! Sharing my resources with colleagues has been a practice since the beginning of my career and I think that’s what makes us all stick together and help one another out. French resources can be scarce, and this is what has led to my starting my STORE on TeachShare.

For more fun and engaging activities for your French students, please check out my STORE La troussede Madame and keep coming back as I build a bigger library of items!

How to use this resource:

1. Copy out pages, I like to copy out a set and then load them into the copier and make multiples that way students sitting side by side do not have the same work and they tend to be more creative with their colouring.

2. Set out as many pink colouring materials as you can and let the students go

3. I created a poster size pair of T-shirts and copied onto blue paper to make a display for World Autism Awareness Day 2024

4. Hang student artwork below your poster and display for the school to see

5. Use writing version to create slogans, sentences, or positive affirmations to raise awareness

This item honours World Autism Awareness Day and is a great tool for your teacher toolkit. I can’t wait to hear how you have decided to use this resource in your classroom!

Who can use this resource:

Teachers who are looking for French resources who want quick and easy NO PREP materials that their students will love. A fresh new look on a great idea and the best part is you just have to click 'print'.

Students love the clear lettering and can get creative using all the various pink writing materials in the class. I gave my students free reign of anything pink and they came up with their own unique designs.

Students are proud to be a part of a bigger project that they can all display with pride.

What grade level:

I personally use these resources with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students in French Immersion. I feel confident that students from K-3 will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the images and T-shirts with any students who may be experiencing challenges finding unique ways of honouring our friends and family members living with autism. Core French teachers will be sure to add the resource to their repertoire for Grades 4 to 6 as they learn to express themselves at the Junior level in French.

Your students will read about nature and how it relates to science. Then they will observe things in nature, and create their own initial from things that they find.

The passages make a great read-aloud for kindergarten and first-grade students. They can be read independently by most second and third graders.

There are 2 worksheets that can be completed after the reading, a check off sheet for the nature walk, writing paper for them to write about their walk on, and a STEM challenge!

"Kind or Trash" gives a fun new outlook on discussing kind vs unkind actions for younger elementary students.
