I need to create and teach a lesson plan designed for special ed students of all kinds. ( Its for grad school....) The lesson can be on anything as long as there are modifications. I am a general ed teacher and have never had to do this before. Any suggestions? What are some lessons that might be good for me to teach? I would really like to do a literacy lesson that includes a book. Maybe sequence?
Any lesson/skill that you would teach to a "regular" education class can be taught to a special ed class. You would just need to do some tweaking. Anything hands-on is also good for this population. What grade level were you thinking of targeting? I used to teach special ed, in case you couldn't tell...
I have some lesson plans that I've written with modifications here: http://www.positivelyautism.com/links.html http://www.positivelyautism.com/gobuddygo/buddybook01.html Most of then center around a book - I like to do that too! I hope these give you some ideas. Good luck!
If you want to focus on sequencing, I would probably do something with the If You Give a Mouse books. I really want to help you and give you ideas, but I'm just a little too tired tonight. :yawn: I'll keep thinking about it and get back to you in the morning. :sorry:
strategies If I were doing that I would probably include some kind of strategy/graphic organizer such as Somebody Wanted But So Then ( we use the five fingers of one hand to tick these off as we go)for summarizing or BCDE for reading a story (Browse the story. Create questions to ask yourself. During reading, answer the questions. End of reading—summarize) to show that you are giving them tools to do the strategy on their own.
Thank you. I think that I really want to do something with sequencing and will use one of those books for if you give a _____.
