- Pixon Teaching Tip: Pixons® can be used as teaching
materials for picturing the metaphors behind Unity® icon sequences. The
word for this week is “turn”. Compare the Pixon to the icon sequence .
Teach the meaning of the word “turn” using a prop that turns around and
around. Then apply that to stirring around and around in a pan.
Extend the meaning to turning around on a merry-go-round, turning the
page in a book, and turning something on or off.
- Intervention Planning: Thank you to Christina Dal Santo,
Annette O’Connor, and Malia Vigil for the Intervention Plan for teaching
the core verb “turn”. Use it with an animated PowerPoint show they developed called Turn!
- Teaching Materials Exchange: Read Happy Hanukkah
and talk about what families do during this holiday. The book is coded
with Pixons® and icon sequences from Unity®45, Unity®60, Unity®84, and
Unity®144.
