Our Blogs

This week our editing team is busy putting together a batch of articulation updates and it will be a little while before those are ready to go on the site. I wanted to take this pause in uploading as an opportunity to explore clips that were added to the site before we started this blog series. In this post I'll be sharing content we uploaded earlier this year to teach skip counting and word families.

We uploaded dozens of clips in a new format we've developed for teaching simple opposite pairs. We also have two new batches of carrier phrases to share. Read on to learn more!

Many times children with autism or Down syndrome can understand much more than they can say. The problem isn’t with receptive language, but with expressive language.

Welcome back! This week I'll be covering our newest social skills clips and a batch of Games & Toys image words we've added to the site. After the update I'll be going over how you can customize your student's assignments by adding clips from the Gemiini library.

We added a small batch of clips that model responding to prompts to write neatly during work time. In each clip, an adult prompts a student who is hastily working through an assignment to take her time and write legibly. The adult then provides an example of what writing neatly looks like and reinforces the student's behavior with lots of praise when the student follows her example.

My name is Johnathan. I'm one of the script writers at Gemiini. I'm passionate about education and about using technology to bring learning opportunities to everyone. I worked in special education before I joined the Gemiini team, and now I'm using what I learned from my students to help make clips for the Gemiini library!
