About me

Activity

Differentiating assignments according to students' learning needs provides learning disabled students the opportunity to achieve success.  Modifications such as:  word banks, graphic organizers, mulitple choices, extra time, shortened assignements, and the availability to take breaks, commonly assist students with learning needs.  I regularly modify assignments in the Inclusive Classroom using these methods to provide them with the opportunity to achieve greater learning and higher percentages on assignments.

Discussion Comment
In my experience, having extra credit projects readily available for students to voluntarily complete is motivating and keeps them focused on class content.
Determining the reading and math levels of students before beginning classroom instruction is extremely helpful to instructors.
I attempt to create PP presentations to introduce every new topic. They are quick and easy to prepare and students respond well to this visual presentation of material.

I love printing on colored paper and/or with colored ink whenever possible because it really assists students with organization and quickly attracts their attention.
