Assessment of Learning

In order to adapt an assessment on Spirituals, Blues, and Jazz for a third grader with a learning disability, I gave the student more time to complete the assessment and also allowed him to draw in order to answer the questions. Drawing helped him to remember historical and musical facts about the material. It acted like a placeholder for the knowledge that was already there inside of his brain, and he actually began writing the answers after drawing pictures to activate this knowledge. I also gave him additional time to complete the assessment. |
