Students with Disabilities

I have a fourth grader with Autism. She sits at a desk alone to avoid distractions and doesn't do her best sitting at a table and interacting with other students. She is more to the quiet, introverted type. She is very interested in art and will begin all assignments but has a little trouble doing the assignment in the correct way. If we are cutting paper to make a bird, she will draw one instead. One on one assistance is needed to cut a few shapes for her and then she knows how to finish. She does much better with a demonstration over verbal instruction. She needs explicit instruction and modeling on techniques and she then learns a new strategy! |

Assessment of Learning

I have a class of 7 EBD students. I post art objectives on the board or elmo and students are provided exit tickets at the end of the lesson. Extra time is provided for them to write down the objective and provide a definition or picture example. When needed, they can work in a peer group and help each other to complete their tickets. |

I have a visually impaired student who uses a computer with the ability to enlarge items and bring them closer. He is able to view graphic organizers and art samples for all lessons. Completing lessons takes extra time and requires some monitoring and always providing positive feedback. Other students in the class really enjoy helping him. These strategies help him to become a successful and proficient learner. |
