We played this "game show" style. Students lined up in a line to wait for their turn. We used the dry erase board to keep a tally score. The lights were labeled "beginning" "middle" and "end." For their turn, the students listened while I read a paragraph-long story. They had to use their strategies to recall the three step sequence. Then I asked them about one event in the sequence. To get their "point" they had to tap on the appropriate light.
We had so much fun practicing our listening comprehension skills with my new fun toy!! They are so motivated when it is a competition! A bonus for me, I have my data collection!
Feel free to email me other ideas you have used in your therapy rooms with tap lights! I would love to hear them!
