Free Special Education Printables

Book for children to fill in all about themselves including pages for photos and achievements. This is particularly useful for children with low self-esteem or an insecure sense of self.

Why do you need this?

Children can express themselves creatively by decorating the book, adding photos, and writing about their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This encourages self-expression and helps children develop their voice and identity.

Focusing on their achievements, strengths, and positive qualities can boost children's self-esteem and confidence. Celebrating accomplishments, big or small, reinforces a positive self-image and encourages children to value themselves.

How and when might you use this?

This activity can be used in a variety of ways:

· At the beginning of the school year as an ice-breaker activity.

· Social-emotional learning lessons focused self-awareness and self-esteem.

· Counselling sessions for children who struggle with low self-esteem or insecurity.

· During small group work where children can share their books with each other and celebrate each other’s achievements.

What is included?

11 page booklet including a front page to draw a self-portrait, my favorite things, my home, my family, what I want to be when I grow up, my birthday, my hobbies, my handprints, photo pages and my achievements.

Looking for a way to learn the function of a student's behavior? I've got you covered with this Behavior Data Collection Sheet. This can be used as part of an official functional behavior analysis or as a way to learn how your students communicate their needs.

What's Included?

• A one-page guide to collecting ABC data (antecedent, behavior, consequence) to determine a hypothesis as to the function of a student's behavior.
• ABC Data collection page (printable)

Why do you need this?

There is a student in your classroom who struggles to express their wants or needs in an appropriate way. You want to alleviate the problematic behavior by discovering the behavior's function so you can find an alternate replacement behavior that serves the same function in a way that is more appropriate for the classroom.

How can I help?

Perfect for students with autism and other developmental needs, this resource uses the principles of errorless learning to build confidence and essential skills in a structured, supportive environment.

What’s Included:

• Colorful pumpkin task cards

• Two types of worksheets:

  • Table format: Pumpkins are placed in clearly defined boxes, helping students match colors and shapes in an organized manner.
  • Randomly placed pumpkins: A more flexible layout where students can freely attach pumpkins, reinforcing the idea that there are no wrong answers.

• Both worksheets include optional gray dots to guide pumpkin placement with Velcro.

How to Use and Prepare:

1. Print and Laminate the colorful pumpkin task cards and corresponding worksheets with pumpkin outlines for durability.
2. Add Velcro: Attach Velcro dots to the back of the colorful pumpkins and on the worksheet. For worksheets with gray dots, place the Velcro over these dots to guide students on where to attach the pumpkins.
3. Organize: Set up the worksheets in a file folder and store the detachable pumpkins in a clear pouch or pocket for easy access and storage.
4. Use: Introduce the activity by guiding students to detach and reattach the pumpkins, explaining that there is no wrong way to complete the task. Whether used for independent work or as part of a group activity, this file folder game promotes success and engagement.

Some students on my caseload are very quiet; either because they are shy, afraid, or simply don’t know what to share. Oftentimes, it can be difficult for them to open up so I created a worksheet that allows them to decide what they feel comfortable talking about. 

Because the worksheet can also serve as a coloring page, most students tend to feel comfortable in deciding their topic of conversation. Students simply color in the heart with the subject they’d like to address. 

This worksheet works well for 1:1 counseling sessions or for teachers who notice a student having a hard time. Simply pull them to the side, or place the worksheet on their desk and have them bring it to you when they are ready. 

A HUGE thank you to the following content creators for making my resource possible:

Need to collect data on the classroom behavior of students**,** but not sure where to start? Data collection for behavior is important, but not always well understood or executed correctly.

Whether you are just starting the process of data collection for problem behavior, writing an FBA, or determining how to track IEP behavior goals, it is important to understand the different methods of data collection in order to choose the one that will serve you best.

The fact is that just one type of data collection doesn't cover all of the behavior tracking and graphing needs of a teacher, but sometimes it is hard to know how to best measure behavior so that you can accurately demonstrate what you are seeing in the classroom.

Data Collection for Behavior is meant to give you a quick overview of common types of behavior collection used in the classroom, and explain which is best for what types of behavior.

Once you determine which method of data collection will work for you, please take a look at my behavior data collection resources. They are designed to make data collection in the classroom as painless as possible and help you to provide documentation for IEPs or to your team with easy and professional-looking graphs.
