Individualizing Every Day--An Ongoing Dynamic Process
Handout 16: Individualizing Every Day
Instructions: List and discuss several examples of typical tasks, how you individualized them through planning or in response to a teachable moment, and how the strategies addressed children's unique characteristics. You will have 20 minutes to complete this task.
| Typical Tasks | How Did You Individualize? | How Did It Address the Child's Unique Characteristics? |
|---|---|---|
| Example: Mixed paint and set up easels | I put an easel on a tray in front of Viveca's wheelchair and provided paint in the colors she prefers and several brushes with shortened handles. I put two colors on one side of the easel and five colors on the other. I labeled the colors in English and French.
|
This allows Viveca to paint. She likes to use several colors. She can reach the easel using brushes with short handles. Some children use only a few colors; others mix them to create new ones. Several children are from Haiti. French is their home language.
