I am a K-5 Art teacher and have a variety of ESE students who come in with aides, as well as many students with IEPs. I have found great success with a method of teaching called Teaching for Artistic Behavior, or TAB. With this method, students are introduced to many media centers, techniques, and inspirations and then may choose what they would like to focus on. It is highly adaptable to students interests and ability levels! For example, I have had a student with a visual impairment that was able to focus on creating with clay and yarn. |

I have used technology in a number of ways to benefit students with disabilities. One specific app I have used is a kaleidoscope drawing application that my students with disabilities have used to show their knowledge of symmetry. |

I had a student with autism who was overwhelmed with the change in environment. After a class of adjusting and observing, I was able to engage him in drawing with a "drawing buddy". First, I drew the animal for him while describing what I was doing as I did it, and then he colored it. After a couple more repeats, he drew the chameleon himself! He even added a baby and a branch for them to sit on! |
