Life Skills - Virtual Field Trip - Going to a Stadium - GOOGLE - CBI - Job Skill

Many special education students benefit from community outings to help them build connections to the real world. Although community based instruction (CBI) is an invaluable tool in many life skills teachers' classrooms, it ultimately requires a lot of coordination, staff, funding, and pre-teaching as well. Help to alleviate some of the stress by introducing your students to VIRTUAL FIELD TRIPS! 

My VIRTUAL FIELD TRIPS each focus on a specific community outing and scaffold students through the process of several smaller tasks they might need while actually visiting the location. This specific activity has a a STADIUM theme to it and allows students to practice several skills that are required while going to a game at a stadium. These activities provide hands-on exposure, are very interactive, and are specifically broken down into smaller (more manageable) tasks so students can experience mastery as they work through the virtual steps.

This activity is specifically formatted to be used with Google Drive and is compatible with Google Classroom. Google Drive is an amazing resource that many educators are now using as an interface to support 1:1 digital instruction in the classroom. I pair it up with Google Classroom (a free website) that allows me to digitally send each student in my class a copy of the worksheets that they later submit to me for grading. With this lesson, students are able to drag and drop a variety of objects into their correct locations and type in their answers into text boxes as well. It is an amazing paper-free process and the kids LOVE working on these worksheets on the computer.

Some activities students will practice in this lesson include using a parking garage, locating items on a city map, paying for tickets and snack items, and locating your seats. Students walk step by step through the process of going to a stadium with this incredibly engaging activity!
