Students With Disabilities

I have taught a wide range of students with disabilities. One student specifically with ADD. He had issues staying in his seat and engaged. I would come up with rewards for completion if his work. He loved doing favors and errands for me. His reward for completing his work would be cleaning something or organizing my supply closet. I was able to get a lot more work out of him when I started using rewards. |

Tools and Strategies

Two strategies I have used in my class to teach students with disabilities are graphic organizers and using different teaching methods for different learners. For example, when I introduce the Principles of Design I have the students create a poster with all the Principles on it. We then have a gallery show where I teach gallery etiquette and we vote on the best poster. Middle Schoolers love competition and moving around. The poster acts as a graphic organizer and students are showing their work and critiquing. When I teach this lesson I have a powerpoint and videos that I show the students so they have more opportunities to learn in their own way. |

1. Provide/Describe one or more examples of adapted or alternative assessments you have successfully used in the art classroom for students with disabilities. Be sure to identify the student's disability. Share your response in the threaded discussion.
For my autistic students I have shortened assignments. I also grade work based on their effort and not neatness. |
