In the classroom I am in we have a lot of students who are a level or two below the rest of their class mates. It's hard for them because they see their friends excelling and they are stuck. One thing the teacher has done is she really focuses on clearly explaining every lesson. She makes it fun by doing group activities or she brings out blocks they can use to help them. One thing she has done for those students with ADHD is she makes her lessons simply and fun. she uses things that they know or they recognize. Like Mickey Mouse. she used a mickey mouse face and colors how many ways there were to make ten. I thought that was really cool and fun.
Every student there is under the IDEA. it's public school so they have free education. and the environment is an non restrictive place to learn. The teacher really makes sure she uplifts her students and does not restrict them from learning. she wants to make sure that the students understand and if they don't she will keep reviewing and teaching until they do understand. I really like that about her.
For those students who are English learners she really is trying to use all three learning Technics with them. She has a dictionary for each student so they can write down the words they don't know how to write and ask how to spell. Its awesome.
