Create an inclusive classroom for all with these fun and accessible activities for Art, Design Technology and Music lessons. Each lesson is tailored for children working below National Curriculum levels and includes a learning objective, the resources needed, the main activity, a plenary and a consolidation activity to help support children's understanding. Activities such as 'Peg Painting' and 'Build my Car' build visual, auditory, social communication and fine motor skills and support self-esteem and mental wellbeing.

The 101 creative activities in this book aim to support the ever-increasing demands on teachers to meet the needs of the growing number of SEN learners in mainstream settings. It also offers practical lesson plans that have been specifically designed to promote fine and gross motor skills and utilise lots of visual stimulus.
