Specific purposes ◎ Arrange the cards in the order in which they were written in the textbook by focusing on words that indicate time.
◎ Read what is written in the sentence.
○ Match the content of the sentence with the photograph.
Considerations for disability characteristics In the case of this particular child, because the child needed a long time to write in a notebook and to organize written information, I prepared several cards summarizing the content of the textbook and then used them with the child.
Cards describing “when” and “what happens to what” were separated by color. To catch the child’s attention, a distinct and easy-to-see color was used on the cards that contained words indicating “when”. Before beginning this lesson, the child was repeatedly taught to identify and enclose “when” and “what happens to what” in squares, or to draw a line next to them.
Expected effects and results The child was seen to read the textbook, to move the cards around while doing so, and to think hard trying to arrange the order of the process beginning from the blossoming of a dandelion to its change into dandelion clocks.
When the child got confused, he/she was instructed to look at the words enclosed in squares or the underlined sentences in the textbook. This made the child think back to past lessons and think again.
How to use The objective of the teaching material is to have children arrange the different-colored cards in the order of “when,” “what happens to what,” and a “photograph,” in the same order as the sentences in the textbook.
