Students With Disabilities

I currently have an autistic student in my class. Due to space/equipment limitations, most of our projects are small group work, but my student has difficulty working in these groups. I have tried including him in the groups, with limited success, but have found that if I can offer opportunities for him to also work independently, he is more likely to succeed. |

Tools and Strategies

In my classroom, I have allowed students to use a computer program for our stop motion animation project. While most students are hand drawing the individual cels, some of my students benefit from the prefabbed characters available in the program. They tend to be more confident in their abilities and more willing to share their end results this way. |

Assessment of Learning

I had a student with orthopedic disabilities who was confined to a wheelchair. I gave him preferential seating, but during a group video project, his group and I adapted a tripod to mount to his chair where he was able to be the camera operator and an active participant in the group. As an aside, it worked really well as a camera dolly and gave the group some excellent shots. |
