As an high school visual art teacher I work with students of all levels of knowledge and abilities. I provide written unit instructions that includes a grading rubric that breaks down each of the steps (that students may check off when finished) that is required in the unit. Verbal instructions are given to the entire class, small groups, and individually as needed. I have created a web page that students can use when they are absent or need to review a technique shown in class. This variety of instruction covers auditory, visual, reading/writing, and kinesthetic learning styles.
I had a student who was identified with Emotional/Behavioral (D/BD) that I taught for two years who did not do well with writing for local and state assessments. This student was not able to stay in her seat for an entire class period, so she was allowed to move to various parts of the room as needed. In one school year she was able pass two Advance Placement Studio Art exams through her art making process. Assistance was given by paring her up with a strong writing student to help her write he short commentary that went with her 12 concentration pieces of art (commentary is read but not scored by AP) for each course. |
