Students with Disabilities

My student is on the autistic spectrum and always feels his work needs to be perfect. If he feels that he has made a mistake he gets extremely agitated, crumples up his work and sits in a corner. I try to meet him at the door when his class walks in and reassure him that nobody is perfect or has perfect work and I only expect effort. When I notice that he is getting frustrated I reassure him with positive comments about his artwork. I also make sure he is sitting at a table with other students that are positive and don't push his buttons. When he is working I make sure to praise his efforts and show them off to the class. I ask him if he would like to sit with the other students or in a quieter area away from distractions. |

I utilize technology in my classroom on a daily basis. I show step by step movies which I stop frequently for any students that is behind. I also display artwork on my smartboard in order for the students to analyze. I have many students with ADHD and I find that I need to segment the lesson into smaller chunks in order for them to focus on doing their best at each point in the lesson or they will rush their work and not show much effort. |

I have a student that is hearing impaired and I will sit next to him and talk to him privately in order to assess his understanding of the project and to ask him about his progress. |
