Students with Special Needs Context for Learning Field Report
I need a report from a school as if I visited.
a Special Needs Class. with a teacher and assistance. I should see a therapist’s speech or physical therapist calling out kids from class. And write down what I saw they did in the session.
The school I am (supposed) to visit should be a boys-only school. The school does not study with students on computers or with internet access. Students learn from books, physical toys, cars, trucks games. etc. whiteboards, colorful crayons, and markers. Educational posters on the wall. Etc. Please use your imagination.
The classroom grade should be 1st graders.
Please Complete the chart below to summarize required or needed supports, accommodations, or modifications for the students that will affect instruction.
