    Arling meets learner needs by dividing the students so they are engaging in social learning. This also allows her the opportunity to work with a smaller group of students as she assists each group. Students who receive individualized assistance, according to research, perform better academically indicating that Mrs. Arling is using the correct approach (Oliver, Wehby, and Reschly, 2009).

By providing specific instruction in a smaller group Mrs. Arling and her aide are able to more effectively and efficiently assist students in a way that encourages learning and discourages overwhelming feelings which could cause the student to stop…

    My “little” Khloe, is a fifth-grade student and is on level when it comes to reading. She reads quite well, but sometimes will read too fast and not fully comprehend what she has read. Other times, she reads so fast, she stumbles on her words. I chose these two lessons for Khloe because they support reading comprehension skills, even though that was not the main literacy component that the lessons were designed for. Also, the added focus on the social lesson with the Stellaluna lesson, persuaded me to choose that particular lesson.…

Thankfully, my effort to engage Brittany in an arts & crafts activity eased her perspective of who I am and how I “found” her.…

With more intense instruction, both general and special education students increase their opportunity for more student engagement and participation in the educational setting.
