Tools and Strategies

One of the strategies discussed that could be implemented in my classroom is a graphic organizer such as a flow chart. A flow chart for Stages in Creating Pottery would help students understand the process and the time involved for clay to become a completed piece of pottery. Another potential strategy for my class is cubing. I like the idea of students making their own cubes for an art history project. They could draw or paint different sides of the cube as an option to having words. One of my students had a hearing disability and I used a special little clip-on microphone that just transmitted to her hearing aid. |

Assessment of Learning

I teach middle school and have a wide variety of students with disabilities in my classroom. I assess students based on their own progress, participation, and effort in completing assignments. Adjusting timelines to provide additional time for students who need it is something I often do and for those who are finished, I give them an extension assignment. I find preferential seating and allowing students who need it, increased opportunity for movement. I also have a table where students can stand to work instead of sitting. |

Students With Disabilities

I had a student last semester with a learning disability. She did well sitting close to the front of the room and with peer supports. Sometimes she needed cues or encouragement to continue working and extra time to complete assignments. |
