Students with Disabilities

Teaching an ESE music class has given me bountiful opportunities to work with students with disabilities. I recently got to work with several students with hearing impairments. We had an interpreter in the room with us as well. We would use different colors on our whiteboard as visual aids when reading music on bells/boomwhackers, as well as having our non-DHH students tap the steady beats on their shoulders to keep time. Eventually, we were all able to steadily keep a pulse together and read music while stomping our feet! |

I had a student in my general music class who was only able to effectively communicate through use of a tablet device. I was able to download a couple of music apps, as well as implement garage band into his device and utilize it to participate in group playing performance activities. |
