Poster or Chart Paper (for creating posters about differences and inclusivity) Face-to-Face: Supply large poster boards or chart paper along with markers, crayons, or stickers for creating inclusivity-themed posters. Allow small groups to work on posters together and display them afterward. Online: Use virtual whiteboard tools (like Jamboard, Miro, or Zoom’s Whiteboard) where participants can collaborate on digital posters. Encourage them to draw or type directly on the shared canvas, adding symbols and images that convey inclusivity themes. 7. Markers/Crayons/Pens (for creating visual materials and interactive activities) Face-to-Face: Provide a variety of markers, crayons, and pens for all participants, encouraging them to use colours creatively in visual materials and activities. Online: Instead of physical materials, encourage participants to use digital drawing or annotation tools. Alternatively, provide ideas for specific colours or symbols to use when customizing online templates and social stories. 8. Role-Playing Props (e.g., figurines, puppets, or costumes for role-playing social scenarios) Face-to-Face: Offer a selection of small figurines, puppets, or simple costumes (e.g., hats, scarves) that participants can use in role-play activities to represent different characters and emotions. Online: Suggest participants bring a simple household item (e.g., stuffed animal, hand puppet) to act as a character in role-play exercises. Use Zoom backgrounds or virtual props (like emojis) to add creativity, or let participants change screen names to reflect different characters in role-play scenarios.

Create Visual Schedule and Social Story Templates Face-to-Face: Prepare physical copies of visual schedule and social story templates, printed on cardstock or laminated for reusability. Provide various markers or dry-erase markers to allow participants to customize schedules and stories for practice. Online: Share editable digital templates as PDF files or Google Docs, enabling participants to access and customize them on their devices. Screen-share a completed example to
