I am teaching a week long summer course for students with ASD. I will be leading a morning meeting for 30-60 minutes daily, then meeting with each student for 30 minutes daily, all over Zoom.

I need ideas for how to make morning meeting meaningful for all students. I'll have students in 3rd, 6th, 7th, and 11th grades.

Fun!
Yikes - that’s a long morning meeting...will you be doing it live? Without interacting with students I find my daily morning meetings fly by. What would normally take over 30 minutes can easily die in 7 minutes 🙈
I keep mine super similar to the routine I use throughout the year. Weather, appropriate clothing for the weather, seasons, songs for days/months, the date, practice counting to the number of the day (ie 15 for June 15th), alphabet review. I record a separate video that’s a read aloud of a different story each day. That could potentially be added to morning meeting - kids & their families have loved the read alouds. If there’s a Spanish version available I send that along too for my spending speaking families, and I include a list of questions they can ask their child about the book.
I sure hope this was helpful! Excited to hear ideas to spice up my ESY morning meetings! 💕

Perhaps add sight words 🤷🏻‍♀️ maybe even include math challenges which could be differentiated for each level (adding single digit up to 5, up to 10, 20, multiplication of 1’s, 2’s, 10’s) and some number matching if you have any students on that level. Social skills are also excellent to practice.

Have them prepare reports on current events and work on WH questions. They could do
Sports news, entertainment, local ect.

How many emails and/or Slack messages do you receive and respond to on a typical day? My employer wants everything answered within 24 hours but in reality responses need to be made almost immediately.

I think my best option is to change jobs.

I was recently offered a Zoom interview. The school had 10 interview slots for me to choose from. Three were one day this week and the rest are next week. I chose the first time slot available.

Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?
