I am still in pursuit of information re LUNCH BUNCH programs. If you are you a parent or an SEA who could provide examples of strategies/ games/ structures used to implement this type of school program, I would be most grateful for willingness to share your experience and expertise. I can be reached at hisgrace@uniserve.com. Thank you!

Rachel Russell:

Could you possibly connect me with an SEA or parent of a child who is involved in a Lunch Bunch group? I have received numerous inquiries from those who are also wanting to set up a group, but very little information on how to proceed with my own endeavor.

Thank you very much.

The books from Amazon.com recommended last fall by Rachel Russell for Lunch Bunch activities are:

1) The Ultimate Playground & Recess Game Book

2) Children's Games in Street and Playground

Also recommended are books by Dr. Pamela Wolfberg who describes her "Integrated Playgroup" model for socializing developmentally delayed and typical kids.

Last October, I read a notice from Rachel Russell re Lunch Bunch
programs for the purpose of "organizing groups of kids into specific
activities to help our clients get socially involved at recess and
lunch." I noted the names of game books she recommended. Thanks,
Rachel!

Now I need more info on the programs and how they are set up. I am an
SEA who would like to facilitate peer play (mostly turn-taking games at this point) between children on the
Autism spectrum and those who are more "typical." I will soon be
meeting with my vice principal to discuss this relative to setting up
a Lunch Bunch program.

If anyone could provide information in this regard(including contact
info with those who are involved), I'd be most grateful. I can be
reached at hisgrace@uniserve.com. Thank you very much!
