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: Plexiglass Painting

Today, we focused on teamwork and giving and following directions.
 
“Rainbow Plexiglass Painting”: Students painted a big sheet of plexiglass together using brushes and Q-tips as well as paint in a rainbow of colors. They then made imprints by placing a piece of paper on the painted side of the plexiglass.




      Rainbow Parachute Play:

      Students played and experimented with the parachute (e.g., creating small and big waves, crawling under the parachute). We had fun singing our rainbow chant while creating waves and lifting the parachute up: RED, ORANGE, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, PURPLE...IT'S A RAINBOW!
