Unified Recess is becoming a more and more popular option for Pre-K and Elementary levels. Unified Recess can be as creative as your schools would like it to be, but it is common for schools to use resources from Young Athletes and Unified PE to provide some structure to Unified Recess. Always revert back to the goal of Unified Champion Schools and think of ways that allow for meaningful and long-lasting friendships to be made between people with and without intellectual disabilities! You will be able to tell if people are mingling and open to new and different friendships by watching a Unified Recess - watch and adapt with more stuctured activities if necessary.
Special Olympics MA is happy to provide more lesson plans and ideas as needed. If you find something on the Young Athletes or Unified PE lesson pages that you like - ask us for more!
Remember this GoogleSite is a resource, and it is a combination of all of the things that WE think may be helpful to you. These resources are just a piece of everything that is available to you to hopefully be less intimidating, but if there is something you like and want more of, we probably have it and would love to share :)
