In my classroom, I had a student who was hard of hearing. He did wear a hearing aid to assist but still required a bit more strategic placement to amplify his learning especially with it being a music course. Some tones he was unable to hear. I sat him close to the music and had the student touch the drum for example to FEEL the rhythm. I also used a microphone when appropriate and that seemed to help. |

I have used text-to-speech to help ESE students hear the pronunciation of multisyllabic words. They are allowed to work with this technology before reading aloud in class to build confidence. |

I had a student with dyslexia who had a very difficult time with formal writing to prove understanding. My school loves exit cards so for this specific child I was able to get a quick glance into her understanding with a VERBAL exit “card”. She drew a picture and talked me through her process. (Second grade classroom). |

From my experience, the best way to assist fine art educators in learning about the use of adaptive assessments is through peer visits and bringing in experts like Florida Inclusion Network. We have many great educators in surrounding counties that are doing amazing work teaching students with disabilities. We don't provide enough time to share best practices. The process can have outstanding results and most importantly, meet the needs of our students, |
