Responding to: - Think of a student with a disability you have now or in the past. Describe ways in which their disability affected their learning in your class.
I have had a student with Cerebral Palsy that could not handle the small beads and twine for a visual arts project. Peer cooperation was the solution in this case. I paired the student with CP with another student that had dyslexia, so they worked together, one read the directions and the other created pattern. |

- Describe how two of the strategies discussed could potentially be implemented in your classroom. Be sure to identify the two strategies by name and describe how they could be used to address a student with a disabilities needs.
- I would love to use cubing and cooperative learning to address several different disabilities. Cubing allows students to explore 6 avenues of knowledge for a concept. Cooperative learning, a grouping of small heterogeneous groups would allow me to set up groups to allow for peer tutoring. For example set up groups and assign different perspectives. For example when teaching cubism, One group would describe it and find examples, that would be best for a student that may have orthopedic impairment, for students that have emotional/behavioral disability it would be good for them to work on the Analysis or synthesis part of the cube project. Each group would share the results of their project with the class. This would allow students to all have success and work to their maximum potential.
