I teach a Functional Life Skills (FLS) special ed class twice a week for 30 minutes. The class consists of 10 students that are between Kindergarten and 7th grade, talk about a variety of motor skill level! I do have 4 assistance in the classroom with me to help the students (hand over hand) with their fine motor skills. Since I see this group twice a week I usually do Mondays as sensory art and Fridays we focus on the actual production of art by creating a project to take home. Although I was very intimidated by this very diverse group at first, I have grown to love working with each individual!
Here are some things we have done in our adaptive art class!
In the Video below I covered the tables with white paper and filled the page with different intersection roads. I taped markers to matchbox cars so when the students “drove” the car the marker would drag behind and make a line wherever their car went! This was a big hit, the students were even making “Vroom Vroom” noises!
I really need to improve on taking pictures of my lessons to post and share with you!
