Students With Disabilities

I have a student with autism spectrum disorder who loves to dance. He needs extra space because he has less body control than some other students, but is less inhibited and therefore more enthusiastic consistently. When given extra space and repeated instruction with physical demonstration, he is able to learn at the same pace as the rest of the class and loves the performances. |

Multiple formative assessment options- students in the technical theatre unit have the options of researching and writing a paper on design, desiging mockups for costumes or makeup, set design, stage management prompt book, etc. This allows students with certain disabilities to gravitate towards their strengths and navigate away from activities that are not beneficial for them.
Graphic organizers- students map out plotlines with graphic organizers- this along with discussion addresses learning through multiple instructional styles. |

Alternative assesments- a few students with ADHD get more choices in their assesment material to add engagement, and are allowed to take breaks during assessment, and are occasionally able to present answers orally. |
