100 Powerful Learning Specialist and Educational Therapy Materials

This week I wanted to tell you about my online store, Good Sensory Learning. I’m Dr. Erica Warren, and I established this site so I could share all the materials that I have created over the last 20+ years as a learning specialist and educational therapist. When I first began my private practice, Learning to Learn, I had great difficulty finding fun and multisensory materials for my students that were effective and engaging. So back in 2005, I made it my mission to design and distribute high-end, remedial products as well as memorable, motivating lessons that bring delight to learning.

Executive Functioning Card Game: Memory Master

I'm so excited to announce the release of my new Publication: Executive Functioning Game: Memory Master! It is the second of a series of four executive functioning games that I have been working on over the past six months. I’ve played it with my students, and it is ridiculously fun!
Following directions game
Memory Master is a fabulously fun game for everyone, but it can also serve as a tool that exercises working memory, attention to detail, management of distractions, stamina, response inhibition, as well as mental shifting and sustained attention. This game can be used to integrate the two hemispheres of the brain, provide a fun brain break, and it can benefit individuals with ADHD, learning disabilities such as dyslexia, executive functioning disorder as well as the head injured and the elderly.

Card Descriptions:
All 30 cards include six memory challenge actions, three activities and a distractor.

For 1 to 4 Players/Teams:
A parent, therapist or teacher can challenge a single player to memorize a series of activities or multiple players can compete to complete memory challenges. The first player/team to win 7 memory challenges and collect 7 cards is the winner.


Sample improve listening skills game

Direct Application: 
Be sure to use the say it, see it and show it challenges that you learn in this game to help your children or students remember sequences of directives in real life. This can help to develop mindful listening skills and bring the fun factor into what might otherwise be considered a chore.

 Where Can I Purchase the Game?
The game is presently available @ Good Sensory Learning as a digital download. A set of my four executive functioning cards games are available on Amazon as decks. I'll keep you posted!

List of Reasonable Accommodations and Modifications for Students with Learning Disabilities

Getting the best reasonable accommodations for struggling learners with disabilities can be a challenge.  The list of possible options is rarely made available to parents, so many remain unaware of the diverse options.  The first step is the understand the difference between reasonable accommodations and modifications.  Accommodations vs. Modifications? The United States clumps accommodations and modifications under the term reasonable accommodations, but other countries, such as Canada make a distinction between the two.

Since accommodations do not alter what is being taught, instructors should be able to implement the same grading scale.
