Many times, multiple steps in directions can be daunting for young children and those with disabilities.
Today we made treasure maps to help with following directions.
Materials:
Paper
Clip art of map (I googled "Treasure map" and cut and pasted into a Word document)
Water
Bowl
Teabags
Markers
card stock
Directions:
Print clip art of the treasure map onto regular typing paper.

Crumple the map into a ball, then straighten it out again.
Slightly wet teabags and tap on the map to instantly "age" the paper.
Label the map according to the number of steps in the directions.
Print directions on card stock.
Today we used this for the dreaded LONG DIVISION!
Blackbeard’s Coins
Look at Blackbeard’s first number.
How many Davey Jones = Blackbeard? That is Jack Sparrow
Jack Sparrow x Davey Jones= Blackbeard’s coins
Blackbeard lost some coins.
Keep going until you have used up all of Blackbeard’s gold.
Argghhh Matey, Check Your Work or Walk the Plank!!!!
I must be honest, I have used this for getting kids to clean up after themselves as well!
It works for any activity requiring multiple steps.
There you have it!
