Students Role in the activity: Jo will participate in the large-group and small-group
discussion activities without any adaptation. This will allow her to work on her
articulation goal. The following General Curriculum concepts will be the focus for
Jo: Patriot, Loyalist, Stamp Act, and Boston Tea Party.
Jo will be unable to read the flip chart on her own; however she will have the
option to review these acts in a group where the flip chart will be read over with her
peers. She will be encouraged to use her finder or pencil to track the words as they
are read. This will address her sight word vocabulary goal.
Instead of writing sentences for the letter, Jo will dictate the sentences using
an IPad or computer. She will pick words that she thinks are important and copy
them down. It does not matter if the words are not In fact important because Jo will
be able to focus clearly on handwriting. This will allow her to work on her printing
goal.
