About the creator

Chief Task Creator

Carrie M

Short version: I love creating tasks and want to share them with busy special educators.Medium version: My experience is with early elementary students with autism.  I'm a recreation therapist by trade and taught art, music, PE, swimming and community at a therapeutic day school.  After attending several trainings on structured teaching, I fell in love with creating tasks.  Now it fills my hours after my kids go to bed!

Give your students independent work tasks that help them learn independent community skills!
