Together, you could try to pilot a program. It may need to start small - like incorporating it into a Resource or Reading class once a week and then progressing from there if the admin sees benefit. I'll be interested to hear how this progresses! I wish I could help you more.Jillhttp://www.PetalsOfSuccess.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3887703449721065287.post-2259216458065557092011-06-08T23:16:53.901-04:002011-06-08T23:16:53.901-04:00So far not a lot of buy in school wide but I conti...So far not a lot of buy in school wide but I continue to use it in therapy. Everyone likes the idea and a few of the special needs teachers use parts of it. I take my own pictures and use those for the picture stimulus so little or no cost to me. I'm always on the look out for great scenes to use. <br /> I like using it in TX a lot but I still would like to see a classroom progression.Teresa Sadowski https://www.blogger.com/profile/17692315372942544875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3887703449721065287.post-28576397305285995682011-06-08T22:07:15.195-04:002011-06-08T22:07:15.195-04:00I haven't used it at a classroom level.

There needs to be a lot of advocacy and school/district-wide "buy-in" to expending resources toward the program. However, with a very good working relationship with the school/district, implementing this program can create great change to the benefit of the students and the school/district. <br /><br />A friend used to implement V/V at the high school level in the classroom. She co-taught with a classroom teacher (special education teacher, I think). They had a great working relationship, and the students really benefited from their collaboration.Jillhttp://www.PetalsOfSuccess.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3887703449721065287.post-20529463397160990322010-12-15T10:36:14.422-05:002010-12-15T10:36:14.422-05:00The presentation went well.

If you're using it at your school or your child has benefitted from this program please let me know. I'd love to hear how it's working.<br /><br />TeresaTeresa Sadowski https://www.blogger.com/profile/17692315372942544875noreply@blogger.com
