This Unit was written by Sonya Trull (Special Ed) and Diane Williams for Oakwood School in Yanceyville, N.C. We did this lesson with First Grade and Special Ed. students. It was really beneficial for our Special Ed. students because they could get invloved so easily, and it was not too difficult for them.
