Adventures in Art: January 2009

http://adventuresinartstudentswspecialneeds.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html

Art ideas for students with special needs. Monday, January 19, 2009. To make this large abstract painting I made long brushes with a dowel rod and yarn. I then placed the paper and paint on the floor. From their chairs the students moved the "brushes" around the paper. Working with a student. The students used medicine droppers to apply paint to the paper. It spread out and soaked in. They then stamped circles on their paper with half of a paper towel roll. I added a handle on the other end o...I have do...

Art ideas for students with special needs. Sunday, November 30, 2008. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Art for students with special needs. I'm half way thru my second year of teaching art for students with special needs. I see children ranging in age from 2 to 21. These are students that area school districts don't know what to do with. They are all multi-disabled. I use many different techniques and tools to bring them success in the art room.

Adventures in Art: Adaptive Scissors

http://adventuresinartstudentswspecialneeds.blogspot.com/2010/02/adaptive-scissors.html

Art ideas for students with special needs. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Many of my student have a hard time using scissors (even ones manufactured for students with disabilities) and holding the the paper at the same time. My school's OT department came up with this wood base to mount the scissors on, so that the students just press the top of the loop while they (or the aide) move the paper along. How thoughtful of them to develop this innovative device! August 20, 2011 at 1:23 PM. This is how A paints.

Art ideas for students with special needs. Wednesday, December 30, 2009. These are part of a printmaking unit that I did with my students from room 30. Student glued cardboard shapes on to a large square of cardboard. Then they rolled it with ink and pressed it onto their paper. Next they inked with a darker color on the cardboard and off set it a bit when they placed it over top of their first print. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Art for students with special needs.

Adventures in Art: A new Adaptive Easel!

http://adventuresinartstudentswspecialneeds.blogspot.com/2010/05/new-adaptive-easel.html

Art ideas for students with special needs. Saturday, May 22, 2010. A new Adaptive Easel! A few weeks ago this easel arrived in my room. At my school we have a carpenter that makes adaptive equipment for all the students. His Name is Ron and he is amazing, the school is so lucky to have him. This easel has really made a difference in my classroom. Students of many shapes and sizes can use this easel to experience art. This works especially good for my students with a limited range of motion.
