Students with Disabilities

I used to have a student in my men's chorus with autism. Getting him to simply hold and read sheet music was a challenge. I quickly figured out that he always needed to have his phone or ipad in his hand. I was able to accommodate him by getting him download ForScore on his ipad and sending the music to him digitally to use. Once he was able to read the score on his digital device, he became more focused on the music in front of him which then solved some of his other classroom behavior issues. |

Assessment of Learning

Option 1: To help my students with anxiety of performing by themselves in front of other students or in front of me, I have my students complete many of their vocal assessments at home. I frequently use Sightreading Factory for this because the student records themself completing the exercise and I am then able to listen and give each student individually specific and related feedback. By assessing students this way, it helps lower their anxiety because the biggest element they fear is taken away. |
