Free resources, teaching science in special education.

Sharing is caring!

Science in the special education classroom can be one of the most interesting subjects to teach and engage students. You can do a lot of fun things with teaching science in special education, from nature walks to in-class experiments. It can also be one of the toughest areas to teach effectively for students with severe disabilities for a variety of reasons. When I asked for ideas from  Facebook  about new products you needed, science was one of the most frequent answers. I think this is because finding enough material at the right level to support the wide range of special education students that we teach can be really tough.

So many of you may have seen that I have started developing science units to try to provide some of the types of instructional materials that you need to create learning experiences in your special education program to help students master alternate curriculum goals as well as basic science skills. I’ve started with life cycles and will be moving on to habitats and other concepts. So in this blog post I wanted to share some elements of successful lesson plans that are important in teaching science concepts to our students, considerations in having evidence of mastery, as well as some other resources for them to learn and practice skills. These elements are vital for student success whether the student receives science instruction in the resource room or the general education classroom throughout the school year.

Meeting the Standards for Science in the Special Education Classroom

One of the areas that many of the special education teachers I work with have struggled with is introducing science concepts, typically drawn from the state curriculum or alternate / extended standards, to students with significant special needs. Most states now require that K-12 students have goals in their IEPs that address the state standards through either modifying grade level standards or applying alternative or extended standards specifically designed for special education. 

Science is one of the areas that are particularly addressed in some states and there are specific skills that have to be mastered to pass the alternate assessment. Science teachers must assure that we clearly know the standard and what is required–because it’s not always completely evident what specifically an individual student has to demonstrate to show mastery.

One of the things that I think is a really difficult issue I find in special education with all subjects, but particularly with science, is getting enough repetition for the students to truly master the concept. Typical students can learn from science experiments or activities that relate to the skill and they don’t need tons of practice to learn, for example, the butterfly life cycle. Students with special needs need high quality activities with a good bit of repetition to practice the skills they need to master as well as to truly understand the topic. In order to meet special education students’ needs, we must provide them with multiple opportunities to practice the science vocabulary and skills in the standards.

Variety of Presentation

Addressing the needs of students receiving special education services requires a variety of learning activities using different strategies. Because our students need so much repetition, special educators must present the material in a variety of ways to ensure student learning and keep them engaged. Think about how boring it would be if we just did one worksheet over and over of the life cycle of a butterfly (or any animal). Having a variety of materials that present the same material is a way to keep students engaged while presenting it to them multiple times to facilitate learning. For instance, in my butterfly unit I included:

• A PowerPoint of facts about butterflies, it can be printed as a pdf book or read on a tablet as well.
• Mini-books that students can color or take home to practice the stages of the life cycle as well as brief facts about them.
• Adapted books (or interactive books) that the students manipulate pictures and/or words to read about butterflies.
• Flip books that the students can refer to with information about each stage of the life cycle.
• Multiple ways to practice putting the life cycle together

In addition, you might want to include some crafts practicing the life cycle, like this one from OurScienceNature .  You can also find videos and experiments to supplement a variety of science activities on my Science in the Special Ed Class Pinterest Board.

Easy Ways to Demonstrate Mastery

Finally, particularly because we are often teaching the science standards as part of the IEP and/or alternate assessment, we need an easy way to demonstrate mastery. We don’t want to add something on that creates more work through data collection, so permanent product is a good way to go. For instance, in the butterfly unit I included a number of different ways students can demonstrate mastery depending on their skill level. There are worksheets for cutting and pasting the stages using pictures, using words and pictures, and using writing with picture cues.

So, interested in checking out the butterfly unit? Check out the video below and click the picture to check it out in my Teachers Pay Teachers store. I will be creating more so if you have topics that you are interested in materials for, let me know and I’ll see if I can help!

7 Ideas for Making Science Fun for Kids with Special Needs

Science is everywhere in the world around us, and it’s important to help all children find joy in science. It can be tricky finding ways to help kids with special needs engage in learning about science. However, there are easy ways to work around accessibility and sensory challenges to make science activities fun for every child. 

Thinking outside the box and tailoring science activities to fit children’s specific needs are key ways to ensure that everyone will have fun. Read more below on ways to help children with special needs engage in science-related learning and activities.

1. Modify experiments to fit sensory needs

Performing science experiments is a fun way to explore science, but children won’t enjoy the experiments if they feel discomfort doing them. The good news is, many experiments can easily be modified to fit sensory needs.

Fingerprint Balloon

Teach your child about our individual uniqueness with this experiment. Color your child’s finger (or your own) with a marker and press it down on a balloon. After you blow the balloon up, your child will be able to see an enlarged fingerprint which is a great introduction to fingerprints and DNA.

Walking Water

Help your child learn about capillary action. Fill cups with water and use food coloring to make each cup a different color. Next, place folded paper towels into each so each cup is connected to another color. As time passes, the colored water will travel up each paper towel and into the next cup. 

2. Learn about scientists who overcame obstacles

Help your child learn about scientists who overcame obstacles to change the world with their scientific discoveries. Alexander Graham Bell had dyslexia , Thomas Edison had hearing loss and Nikola Tesla had OCD. Show your child that everyone has something to offer to the scientific community and can make a difference.

3. Experiment with seasons

During the spring, you can plant flowers with your child and watch them grow. In the summer, you can use the hot temperatures to monitor how quickly water evaporates or try the popular trick of frying an egg on the sidewalk. 

In the fall, experiment with pumpkins . During the winter months, melt snow to see how much water is actually in snow or chart the weather to study trends.

4. Build with building blocks

Not only do building blocks help with counting, sorting, and motor skills, but this STEM activity is a fun way for children to learn about engineering and architecture. As you help your child build different creations, you can talk about the importance of having structural support.

5. Spend time exploring nature

Exploring nature is a wonderful way for your children to learn more about science. Many parks have paved walking trails to make nature more accessible for everyone, and this is a great way for children to learn more about the plants, trees, and wildlife local to your area. 

If your child loves animals, you could visit a local farm . Many stables offer programs that allow everyone to participate in riding horses.

6. Tailor your activities to their interests

One of the easiest ways to make science fun is to tailor your activities to your child’s interests. If your child enjoys playing with cars, you could build a racetrack to learn about physics. If your child likes learning about space, you could build a rocket or learn about key figures in space exploration. 

Once you find a scientific aspect that your child enjoys, you can visit the library to find books on the topic or see if any local museums have exhibits or programs.

7. Allow your child to help you in the kitchen

From mixing ingredients to understanding the states of matter to learning about the importance of using the correct measurements, so many science lessons can be learned in the kitchen . Even simple tasks like preheating the oven, stirring ingredients, and rinsing items provide the opportunity to learn more about science.

Using Science Experiments in a Special Education Classroom

Science experiments are a fun, engaging way for students to explore the world around them while also practicing reading, writing, and math skills without realizing it.

Science doesn’t have to be boring, it can be fun! And science doesn’t only have to happen during your science block or in the general education classroom – you can bring the excitement to your special education classroom too!

Science experiments for special education.

As teachers, we know that students learn best when they are involved in their learning. But when you have multiple students in your classroom with varying grade levels and instructional levels, how do you plan it?

And how do you know which science experiment to do? What supplies do you need? How much do you prep ahead of time? And how do I do this without spending more time and money on the supplies?

All very great questions – let’s get started then!

How to add science experiments to your lesson plans with ease

Step 1 – Look at your curriculum, for all the content areas. What are the standards you’ll be teaching this week, month, marking period or semester? Write those down. You’re basically going to create a graphic organizer for yourself.

There are so many ways for you to connect science into your math and ELA block. For example: if your math lesson is about measurement and it’s autumn, you could add in a pumpkin science experiment for math – whether it’s counting seeds, measuring volume or weight, measuring circumference… it’s all there in that one science experiment integrated into the math lesson!

Step 2 – Once you have step 1 completed, think about the time of year you’ll be teaching that topic or standard. It could be related to the season or a specific topic.

Here is an example:

• Standard: measurement. When: February. Integrations could be: Valentine’s Day… see this lesson here .

Step 3 – Set up the basics of your lesson plan. You know the standards, you know the learning objective, you know what the content is, and you know what you’ll be teaching. Write it all down. Then you can go back in and fill it in with more.

Let me show you my science experiment lesson plans (which are included in this resource ):

Step 4 – Get all of your supplies ready. Most times, you’ll have a lot of the supplies for science experiments already in your classroom… popsicle sticks, markers, straws, Dixie cups. And if you don’t have them, ask your teacher neighbor or teacher down the hall – more than likely, someone in your building has the one supply you don’t and is willing to share.

Step 5 – Teach the lesson!

When you’re thinking about science experiments, there are also some other things to keep in mind.

• Make sure you have graphic organizers that students can use during the experiment. Anchor charts are also a great addition to these lessons.
• Give students an experiment reflection.
• Introduce all of the science experiment materials to your students prior and explain what each item does. This could be a beginning of the year lesson in itself for all of those science lab instruments.

Here’s what teachers are saying about our visual science experiments:

My kids have so much fun doing hands on experiments like these and these made it so easy to plan them and have more fun engaging with them during it! These are perfectly planned and wonderfully easy to use! Your kids will have fun and so will you! Amelia B., Middle School Special Ed Teacher

This is a fantastic resource with lots of options to do with a wide variety of abilities and students. Each week we will do one experiment on “fun friday” since we do not have much time in our days to set specifically to science, my students loved it! Emily G, 4th grade teacher

My students love to do these experiments and I love that they aren’t super expensive, super messy, or super intensive to prep. Very satisfied! Elizabeth H., Elementary Special Ed Teacher

5 Clean Science Experiments for Autistic Children

Posted on Published: October 9, 2020  - Last updated: June 16, 2021

You are going to love these clean science experiments for autistic children and this guest post from the wonderful Emily Swank of Autism Assistant !

It is no secret that incorporating science experiments into learning is a great way to engage children and make lessons more hands-on and fun. While autistic students may have different needs in the classroom, they typically enjoy a good science experiment as much as every other learner.

However, there can be some sensory needs that need to be taken into consideration when planning science experiments, to ensure that your autistic child is as comfortable as every other student.

Sensory Issues and Autism

Many children on the autism spectrum have sensory processing disorder (SPD) or struggle with certain sensory issues. A very oversimplified definition of this is just that their brain processes sensory input (touch, taste, sight, smell, sounds) from the environment around them differently than most children. For some children this can mean they crave extra sensory input and for others it can cause an aversion to certain stimuli all together. 

National Autism Resources is the leading online resource for information, advice, toys, gifts, educational products and more.

For our article, we have picked 5 clean science experiments that are quiet and don’t require children to get their hands messy, since these can be typical triggers for autistic children.

Clean Science Experiment #1: Invisible Ink Experiment

The lemon juice used for the invisible ink experiment is composed of carbon compounds. When they are at room temperature on the paper they are colorless.

The fibers of the paper soak up the carbon compounds from the lemon juice. When the paper is completely dry you can’t see any of the lemon juice.

However, when you add heat to the paper, it breaks the carbon’s chemical bonds in the lemon juice. This causes some of the carbon to be released and when that released carbon comes into contact with the heat, it oxidizes (turns a darker color). Thus revealing the “invisible ink” that has been written on the paper.

Invisible Ink Experiment Steps

1) Add fresh squeezed lemon juice or bottled lemon juice to a cup.

2) Put the end of your writing utensil (paint brush, Q-tip, cotton ball, etc) in the cup and soak it enough to get enough liquid on the end.

3) Write your message on a plain piece of paper. Then let it dry completely so that it is invisible.

4) Use a heat source to warm up the lemon juice. We used a lighter but there are plenty of available heat sources like a candle or a stove top burner. 

Always have an adult conduct or supervise this portion of the experiment.

5) Watch your invisible message appear!

Clean Science Experiment #2: Blow up a Balloon Using Science

When vinegar and baking soda are mixed together, it causes an acid-base reaction that produces carbon dioxide, which fills up the balloon.

Steps for blowing up a balloon using science

1) Take an empty 16 oz water bottle and pour approximately one inch of white vinegar into the bottom. (You may want to use a funnel for easy pouring. Just be sure to rinse it off and wipe it clean before you use it again.)

2) Use your funnel to put some baking soda into the balloon. You may need to use a Q-tip to push it through. 

3) Attach the balloon to the top of the water bottle but be careful not to dump the baking soda in yet.

4) Turn the balloon over and let the baking soda fall into the vinegar at the bottom of the water bottle.

5) You will see the balloon begin to expand and fill up.

Clean Science Experiment #3: Science Experiment that Creates a Bubbly Lemon

When lemon juice is mixed with baking soda, it creates an acid-base reaction that releases carbon dioxide, which produces bubbles. This is the same sort of reaction they use to create the bubbles in popular carbonated soft drinks.

Steps to Make your Lemon Bubble 

1) Take a lemon and cut one end off.  An adult should do this part of the experiment.

2) Take a fork and mix up the inside of the lemon. (Make sure to leave everything inside the lemon because we need all the juice for the experiment.

3) Add a couple drops of blue or red food coloring and stir it up a little more.

4) Now add a scoop of baking soda and watch the bubbles appear up at the top of the lemon opening.

Clean Science Experiment #4: Walking Water Experiment

The purpose of this experiment is to show the little scientists how adhesion, cohesion, and surface tension can cause a liquid to move up a porous solid.

The molecules in the water stick to each other (cohesion), next they will stick to the paper towel (adhesion). As a water molecule starts to climb up the paper towel, the next water molecule that is stuck to it will begin to be pulled up the paper towel by the first molecule.

This happens in a long line as many molecules are being pulled up the paper towel in succession. This will give the appearance that the water has been walking up and down the paper towels.

Steps for the Walking Water Experiment

1) Set out 7 glasses of similar height. Fill 1,3, 5 and 7 approximately ¾ of the way with water.

2) Next you will add the food coloring to the glasses as follows: 7-10 drops of red to glasses 1 and 7, 12-15 drops of yellow to glass 3, and 7-10 drops of blue to glass 5.

3) Take a paper towel and fold it in half long ways. Continue to fold over and over again until you have a long slender piece of paper towel. Then put one end of the paper towel into the first glass and the other end into the glass next to it. Repeat this step until every glass has two ends of a paper towel in it (except the two end glasses which will only have one)

4) Now watch the water climb up the paper towels.

Clean Science Experiment #5: Use Science to Make Paper Cups Hold Your Body Weight

This clean science experiment is teaching children about weight distribution. It’s great for future architects and engineers!

Steps for Using Science to Make Paper Cups Hold Your Body Weight 

1) Have the child stand on a paper cup. It will easily crumble under the weight of even a smaller child. This is because all the weight is directly on the cup.

2) Now, evenly space out several of the same paper cups (6-10) and then put a piece of cardboard over all the cups. Then have the child stand on the cardboard. It should hold them because of the weight distribution.

If you’re feeling brave you can even add a second layer of cups with another piece of cardboard on top of that.

Help with Sensory Issues

Occupational Therapy is a tool that is often used to help children with sensory issues adjust to the environment around them and deal with sensory stimulation. AutismAssistant.com is a great free tool to help parents find high quality therapy providers within their community that can work with their children on issues like sensory processing disorder. Consulting with a therapist is a great place to start.

7 easy STEM activities for students with developmental disabilities

• January 27, 2020

Teaching STEM is now a standard component of early childhood education, but do we pay enough attention to students with special needs?

Educational institutions – from traditional schools to home school programs – are recognising the value of early childhood STEM programs in teaching critical thinking, encouraging curiosity and fostering a love of collaborative learning and problem-solving.

However, as educators continue to build out their STEM offerings for younger children, it’s important they pay attention to the needs of students with developmental disabilities. All too often, students with disabilities find that STEM activities aren’t designed with enough consideration for their needs. That lack of consideration is an especially big loss considering that STEM-focussed activities can be especially stimulating and enjoyable for many students with disabilities and that disability-inclusive STEM education can have substantial benefits for childhood cognitive development.

Fortunately, incorporating STEM education for kids with disabilities doesn’t have to be difficult. If you’re an educator interested in creating fun and interesting STEM activities for younger children with developmental disabilities, try these seven easy and fun activities in your classroom. They’re designed to be accessible, interesting and rewarding for students of many different ability levels, and they help lay the foundations of logical and creative thinking that lead to a world of discovery.

1. Sticky-note matching numbers

A Post-It Number Match Game is a great way to teach basic math skills using a method that also provides the kinetic stimulation that many learners with disabilities need in their lessons. All you need for this activity are some markers, sticky notes, painter’s tape and butcher paper.

RELATED: The rise of cybersecurity education 

Create a wall display with dots for each number, as well as a numeral on a sticky note to match. Then, hide the numbers around your classroom and send your kids on a hunt. Kids will love the accomplishment of finding each number, counting out the dots and applying each note to its spot! Best of all, the activity can be easily modified for identifying shapes, colours or any other learning goal.

2. Microscope activities

Microscopes are a classic way to get kids interested in the world around them, and starting with a student microscope kit will help introduce these important tools in a way that’s accessible for young children with disabilities.

Learning to manipulate the different parts of a microscope can be an excellent sensorimotor experience for students with disabilities and can help improve their confidence in operating STEM equipment, with many student microscope kits also coming with learning aids such as books, experiment cards and prepared slides. Finally, microscopes with digital cameras are also available that are great for guided learning exercises, as they make it easy for educators to display specimens on larger screens for easy viewing.

3. Popsicle stick builders

Experimenting, creating and building are all key parts of the STEM process, and popsicle stick builders can be an excellent way to get kids going on these key concepts. All you’ll need are a few velcro dots and a big bag of multicoloured popsicle sticks (also called craft sticks). Each dot should come as a pair with a hook and a loop side. Place one of each on each end of the craft stick and you’ve got a fun and versatile building toy great for building letters, numbers, shapes and anything else a child’s mind can dream up!

4. Classroom caterpillars or tadpoles

Classroom caterpillar or tadpole kits can be a great choice for STEM classrooms with students with disabilities. Watching and caring for a living creature as it grows and develops is a priceless STEM experience that can foster a lifelong love of life sciences. Students of all different ability levels will learn about the life cycles of the animals around us, and they’ll love watching the amazing transformation of caterpillars into butterflies or tadpoles into frogs. On top of that, these kits help teach responsibility and care for living things, which can benefit children’s social and emotional learning.

5. Easy stick blocks

With bristles that let them stick together on all four sides, these fun building blocks (also called bristle blocks) offer all kinds of building opportunities that other block toys don’t. They’re easy to stick together, but also require effort and concentration, so they can help students with disabilities learn to solve problems and work independently. Grab a big lot of them and let your learners’ imaginations run wild, or challenge them to build structures that support small objects in the classroom.

6. Solar UV Beads

A box of solar UV beads offers two activities in one — a creative exercise that children of different ability levels can do, plus an awesome demonstration of a key concept in STEM. Making jewellery with these clear white beads is a great fine motor skill activity that offers simple, creative fun, but the real enjoyment begins once you take them out in the sun. Kids will be amazed to watch the colours of the beads change when they’re exposed to sunlight, and it offers a great opportunity to show them the power of the sun and how natural forces can change the things around them.

7. Pattern Blocks

Recognising, matching and manipulating patterns is a key early skill for STEM learners of all ability levels, and pattern blocks are an accessible and fun pattern-teaching tool that has been used for decades. These brightly-coloured blocks are an early childhood classic that give children a dazzling array of shapes that they can rearrange to learn critical STEM concepts such as how parts come together to form a whole, shape symmetry and measurement. They’re also great for many different kinds of learning, from structured lessons in which learners work to imitate a design, to creative play exercises in which they make their own.

A disability-inclusive classroom is one in which all students are given opportunities to thrive, and inclusive STEM education is a key part of cognitive development for students with disabilities. With these easy and fun activities, educators can provide a range of appropriate STEM lessons that will ensure students with disabilities are included in the thrill of discovery.

3 science experiments for special education classrooms.

Are you are you looking for ways to spice up your distance learning with your students? Try one of these really fun science experiments that are inexpensive, hands-on, and exciting.

I’m going to share 3 fun science experiments that I’ve completed with my students all virtually. I have done some of these experiments also in a brick and mortar setting.

#1: Gummy Bear Experiment

I have done this experiment in person and virtually. If you are completing the experiment here are some ways to include your students who are watching

• Make Hypothesis
• Read all the ingredients needed
• Read the steps/procedure
• Be the timer
• Choose the color gummy bear that goes in each bowl/cup
• Decide which bear should go in first
• Recorder of the observations.

#2: Heart Rate Experiment

This one is fun for a rainy day or when you need something interactive in a pinch! I have done this experiment through Unique Learning, but also Adaptation Station has a similar one here you can purchase from Teachers Pay Teachers. This is one of the easiest science experiments to do!

If this is one you are doing virtually here are some ways to get students included:

• Have them choose a song. (I did this and did a 15-30 second clip of each song.)
• Have them choose a dance move

#3: Making a Rainbow with Candy

This is a simple experiment, but the student’s reaction is priceless! My students really loved this one. We have done it again with different colors because they enjoyed it so much.

A fun tip, I created a time lapse video so we could watch it over and over again. I used the step by step guide direction pack from Life Skill Creations.!

I hope this helps give you some ideas for future experiments you can complete with your class. Check out these other great digital tips!
