100th Day of School Adapted Book | Special Education Exercise & Movement
Make your 100th Day of School celebration meaningful and engaging with this exercise-themed adapted book for special education.
This 100th Day of School Adapted Book is a hands-on, movement-based activity designed to help students practice symbol recognition, following directions, counting, and gross motor skills while actively participating in the lesson. It is especially effective for autism classrooms, special education settings, and early learners who benefit from visual supports and structured movement.
Each page encourages students to both match symbols and perform physical actions, keeping learning interactive and motivating.
How This Adapted Book Works
On each page, students are shown:
- A picture of a child completing an exercise 10 times
- A matching symbol they must identify
- A clear prompt to complete the same movement themselves
Students choose the correct symbol from the baseboard, place it on the page, and then perform the exercise. Completing all pages allows students to reach a total of 100 movements, reinforcing the concept of the 100th Day of School in a meaningful, physical way.
