As special education teachers, we know how important it is to find resources that engage our students, meet educational standards, and are adaptable to the diverse needs of our classrooms. That’s why I’m so excited to introduce the Graph of the Week resource! Designed specifically for special education settings, this resource makes data and graphing fun, interactive, and easy to access.
If you’re looking to target essential math standards while also boosting language skills, this resource will be a game-changer for your classroom.
What Is the Graph of the Week?
This resource includes 30 unique themes, each theme includes 13 questions. The themes are diverse and engaging, making sure students look forward to exploring new topics each week. Whether used during morning meetings, circle time, or as part of your daily math lessons, these activities provide structured learning in a fun, visually supported way.
Graph of the Week is carefully designed to align with math standards focused on data and graphing. But it doesn’t stop there—students will also work on their language skills by engaging in conversations and answering questions based on the graph and topics.
What Makes It Perfect for Special Education?
The Graph of the Week resource was created with the unique needs of special education classrooms in mind. Here are a few key benefits that make it stand out:
1. Differentiated for All Learners
No two students are alike, especially in a special education classroom. Each theme in this resource is differentiated to accommodate students at different levels of ability. Whether you have students just beginning to explore graphs or more advanced learners ready to dive deeper into data analysis, there’s something here for everyone.
2. Visual Supports for Accessibility
Many of our students benefit from visual supports to help them access content. Graph of the Week includes visual supports and differentiated worksheets to keep students interested. For students with visual processing challenges or those who are minimally verbal, these supports can make a huge difference in how they understand and interact with the material.
3. Targets Multiple SKills at Once
This resource doesn’t just cover math—it’s also a powerful tool for building language skills. Each theme includes 5 yes/no questions and 6 multiple-choice questions. The interactive bulletin board and worksheets encourage students to talk about what they see, describe trends, and engage in discussions about the data. For students who need more practice with verbal expression or comprehension, the built-in supports provide ample opportunities for both structured and creative conversations.
4. Engaging, Fun, and Flexible
With 30 themes to choose from, you can keep things fresh all year long. The variety of themes keeps students engaged and excited to see what’s coming next. Plus, the flexibility of the resource allows you to fit it seamlessly into your existing routine—whether it’s a part of morning meeting, circle time, or a dedicated math block.
