Default One-on-one classes with a physically impaired student

Hello,

I teach a one-on-one class with an intermediate/advanced intermediate student, who is also a wheelchair user and is unable to control her physical actions.

I need to think of some warm up games, or general activity templates, I can use in the class to keep the lessons fresh. I try to keep it more verbal than physical, and I will move things or write for my student when required.

So far, we have played a board game, started a pen pal friendship with a friend of mine, and discussed Small Talk. I'm thinking about doing a memory game (she calls out battleship locations and I turn over the cards) or lyric ordering (each line has a number, she calls it and I move it) next.

If you have any extra ideas, I'd be very grateful. She loves english, music, reading and healthy food. (maybe it helps to know, she is Japanese??) You can post here, or email me: morgan.sensei@hotmail.com

Cheers,

Morgan
