Students with Disabilities

A few years ago I had a kindergarten student that was visually impaired, borderline blind. He had the best personality and jokes. He never let anything get in his way. When we started working writing our own rhythms it became tricky. He couldn’t write a rhythm and then read it to me by using a paper and pencil. We pulled out popsicle sticks and he was able to write his own rhythms on the floor and then read them back to me. I was amazing at how much he could do. He always sat close to me and would ask to touch everything. I even had Braille on some of the signs in my room. He loved to sing and dance and he didn’t let his disability get in the way at all. |
