sel kid story book about using listening body in class for students with autism and ADHD

This guide outlines a comprehensive lesson plan focused on teaching students the importance of using their 'listening body' to enhance their listening skills. The lesson consists of a series of steps, including focusing with their eyes, listening with their ears, keeping their mouths quiet, resting their hands, and maintaining a calm body posture. The approach incorporates visual supports such as a Listening Body Poster, Calm Down Tools, and a Visual Timer to facilitate learning. Adaptations for students with Autism and ADHD are provided to ensure inclusivity, encouraging the use of concrete language, movement breaks, and noise-canceling headphones. Through interactive practice and role-play, students are engaged to actively participate and demonstrate their understanding by showcasing their 'listening body.' By the end of the lesson, students will grasp how effective listening aids learning and fosters friendships.
