The Clubhouse is the Behavioral Intervention Association's (http://www.bia4autism.org) after-school program. Once a week, children between the ages of 5 and 12, who have communication and social challenges, meet and engage in fun activities to practice different social skills. Thanks to the generosity of our friends at the Jewish Community High School of The Bay who have given us access to their beautiful campus and their committed student volunteers, we were able to bring our East Bay Clubhouse program to San Francisco.

A Rainbow of Colors: Contact Paper Collage

 Today, it was all about cooperation.
  • Warm-up game “Rainbow Bowling”: The students engaged in a bowling game and practiced cheering for their friends .
  •  “Rainbow Collage”: Students created a collage by attaching a variety of art materials in a rainbow of colors (e.g., tissue paper, fabric, etc.) onto contact paper (sticky side up).

        


      “A Rainbow of Colors”: We filled a big bin with colored rock salt, salt and rice to create a rainbow. We also added different containers (e.g., funnels, bottles) as well as hidden small objects. The students were encouraged to engage in cooperative play (e.g., filling a bottle together with the help of a funnel).
