Students With Disabilities

I have students in my dance classes that have several disabilities. I have learned that repetition and one on one time help them while they are learning. I think it's important to have one on one time with each student, making them feel as comfortable as possible. Repetition is important especially when the students are learning the movements being taught in the lesson. I have also learned other ways that have helped the students. Standing close to the student to see how they are doing in the class is essential. It allows them to feel comfortable and feel like they too are apart of the class. Always making sure that a student feels acknowledged and comfortable is what makes me happy as a teacher. |

Assessment Of Learning

In my classes, I use dance combinations to access the students to see if they know what they are doing. For my students with disabilities that are in wheelchairs, I adjust the lesson and have been able to have them use their arm movements more to show knowledge of the movements. I am able to adjust my lesson based on the class and what is needed. |

I have learned that technology can help a student with disabilities. I have noticed that them being able to see movement or what is being discussed in the lesson using a projector has been helpful. I have used several dance follow along videos that the students can watch and dance to at the same time. My students with disabilities can also follow along and feel included in the lesson. |
