RoboKind's Calm Down Anywhere tools and our Safety Drill lessons are found in the Situational Module of our Full Foundations Suite. These lessons were purposefully crafted after much input from partners, providing timely strategies in both of those areas. While consistently asking for feedback on those new lessons, partners have shared meaningful implementation success stories that RoboKind can share with other partners around the world.
One great example of this was a brilliant strategy used by Pike Road Schools Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), Kellianne Anderson.
Setting Students Up for Success with Safety Drills
Safety drills are a necessary part of building routines with students. To ensure that her students are successful, Kellianne coordinates her school safety drills with the corresponding RoboKind safety drill lessons. For example, if the school will be conducting a fire drill on a Friday, Kellianne makes time to teach and practice each step of the fire safety drill lesson. By promoting repetition in the routine of the drill, Kellianne is ensuring that her students will not only be successful in the school drill but will also know exactly what to do in case there is an actual emergency.
➡️Tech Tip: Use Your Interactive Board as a Student Device!
For lessons that apply to all students (like our safety drills), you might consider using your interactive board (with internet access) as a student device.
Go to the Web Companion on your board’s browser and select “Student”.
Then add your board as a student device:
After choosing your avatar (Milo, Jemi, Carver, or Veda) and selecting the students for your group, you can now teach your entire class a group lesson from your interactive whiteboard!
Running lessons this way allows you to capture the lesson and minutes in RoboKind Central through the “Generate Report” feature.
