Structured Work Systems are a great way to work on students completing tasks more independently. One way to make Structured Work Systems more motivating is through incorporating interests into the taskbox activities. This week's Taskbox Time is dedicated to taskboxes that incorporate student interests.
Many students love animals. There are a variety of tasks that can be made incorporating animals.
