Students With Disabilities

I had a student with ADHD. He zoned out during instruction, could not focus for a long time, and would get side tracked badly. He started falling behind in class because his ADHD was taking over. I started giving him extra "work" to occupy him. Let him have breaks during long times of working. I had him clean the classroom so he could have a break from thinking about one thing. After I allowed him to have multiple breaks during a class time, he started being able to focus during the time he was supposed to focus, and eventually caught back up with the class. |

I have a paralyzed student who has low motor control in his hands. I allow him to talk notes on a computer. If they have to turn in anything- he creates a PPT. Typing is much easier than writing for him, so he is confident in his work.
I also implement self eval and reflection in my classes. This helps the students see what they can improve upon and also see how successful they were with the project. |

Assessment of Learning

I allow my students to use any material that they are comfortable using. Some of my ESE students do not like the feel of some materials - like charcoal - so creating idea based projects with a choice of materials allows my students more comfortability in the classroom. This also allows my visually impaired students to use their ipads for artwork as well. |
