In a drawing lesson with fourth graders I used the Tiered Lesson strategy. A student with ADHD was given scaffolded instruction and varied subject matter that gradually increased in detail. The student was taught to simplify the objects viewing them in their biggest schematic shape and proportion. The student was taught to work from a simple representation to gradually adding medium sized down to small details. Demonstration and visuals demonstrating the concepts were provided. |

In a third grade lesson about symmetry I provided differentiated instruction for a student with a Behavioral Disorder. I was careful to have the student placed in a group that would not conflict with his personality. The student had genuine talent and interest but was easily angered. His work was structured so that he was given options for choice within the project’s goal. I encouraged him and stressed the importance of enjoying his work and patience. I frequently monitored his work and behavior and gave him positive recognition in front of his peers. I encouraged him to help his group members. He was also invited into the school’s Art Club but was required to have a positive conduct grade each week.
I assisted a (HI) Hearing Impaired first grade student with technology by using a head set with microphone that amplified my voice into hearing aids that she wore. |

Assessment of Learning

I have a fine arts student with ADHD. The Assessment Accommodations I would select that could potentially benefit him in assessing his learning would be to provide extra testing time and allow for rest breaks. This would allow him to re-focus and avoid being overly stressed. |
