I often have students with Learning or Behavioral Disabilities in my art classes. In my room, studio based 2D courses, the student has hands on learning, demonstrations, Lots of Visuals. include them in groups with students they are comfortable with and work well with. I always provide lots of visuals and examples of current projects as well as hands on demonstrations. I have sketchbooks for all students for writing down art terms and other instructions. I also have a board with daily learning goals and another with procedures and examples. |

I had a student this year that was extremely ADHD. The student could not stay sitting down for an extended period. So I allowed the student to stand up and periodically move around the room. This lead me to add a studio portion of testing to written assessments as the student could not stay sitting long enough to complete the entire written test. The I adjusted the weighting of the two tasks after analyzing the results. This benefited other students with focusing issues and others that more tactical learners. |

Students With Disabilities

I had a student that was dyslexic and ADD. The student would get very overwhelmed when starting a large project. I found that if I let the student work on a smaller piece of paper she would excel. So I had her produce several small pieces and then we found a way to put them together. This instruction adjustment was relative to the gradual release model considering I have them brainstorm together on a sketchbook page prior to starting the main project. |
