Students with Disabilities

I had a kindergarten student with Downs syndrome. She would have a para professional that was with her one on one. I would guide the lesson and then the para would walk her through the process. The student would then try and replicate what the lesson was. She would only last about 15 minutes before she would get bored and run around the room. When the other students started their work time, I then sat down with her too and would guide her through the curriculum and the art making process. I would have her call and response to things I had introduced to see if she could retain the steps. She finished the project and was able to grasp the concepts. I realized with her introducing one thing at a time was key. |

Assessment of Learning

I have a student with Downs Syndrome that I teach. She is on access points. So when I am doing a lesson on line. I watch the student is doing and instead of using the entire piece of artwork as a summative assessment. I might look at what types of lines the student used and notated that.
Also, because she is a first grader. I use a rubric that is geared towards her for her motor skills. I access her at the beginning of the year and then use the rubrics throughout the year to see what she improves upon. |
