ADAPTING TOOLS AND ACTIVITIES As teacher we have to ensure the active participation of all students with or without special needs, some of them need more support than others whether it is physical, mental, behavioral or socio-emotional. Examples
Adaptive tools for drawing and writing
• Tissue roll for stiff and weak grips • Triangular sponge for small hands and better grips •Plastic or Toy ball for a larger grip •Paper Clips with rubber bands to practice tripod grip DIFFERENTIATION AND MODIFICATION Art teachers are not only creative in coming up with art lessons, but differentiating their activities as well. Tasks and expectations can be modified Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 according to difficulty. For teaching how to draw human figure
Level 1, stencils are used where students

STATIONS (OPTIONAL) TO MAKE YOUR ART ROOM
MORE MANAGEABLE You can layout the room with the designated areas: wash room, drying area, materials area, work area and art display area. PREPARING FOR FAST FINISHER Some students are fast finisher. Either they rush their work or they are simply efficient and good at what they do. To prevent students from disturbing other students, prepare some coloring pages or activities that the fast finisher can do. They have to know this beforehand so that they wont get upset if they realize that they still have work to do. POSTPRODUCTION AND CLEANING UP Cleaning is crucial. Students need to learn how to clean their own space and recognize share responsibility of cleaning common spaces. Showing respect to materials is a skill they can apply for the rest of their lives. It is important that these are ingrained in them during their early years. THANK YOU SO MUCH
