Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

A team of dedicated, experienced educators created this resource to support your End-of-Year lessons. 

🆘 Support Struggling Students

Support students with physical challenges by pre-cutting the taco pieces before beginning the activity.

✂️ Give Them the (Safety) Scissors 

This template makes for a bonus cutting skills activity, depending on your students’ ages and abilities. 

With adult supervision, cutting skills help students work multiple muscle groups and their brains, plus:

• Strengthen finger and hand muscles
• Build dexterity and fine motor skills
• Improve hand-eye coordination
• Develop focus and attention

And all of these skills are necessary to use a pencil and a fork; button a shirt and tie shoes; write, type and swipe.

Scissor skills are brain and muscle skills!
