When working with students with SPECIAL NEEDS, what
do I need to do?
INCLUSIONTips for including all students in
arts activities
People First Language
• Language that puts the focus on the individual NOT the disability.
Make the circle big enough for EVERYONE!
Accommodations• Change the way you teach or assess
student learning• Change the materials that the student
uses• Make adaptations in the learning environment
ModificationsInvolve changes to the goals and outcomes of
the curriculum.Modifications are considered for students
with disabilities after appropriate accommodations have been tried.
Is an Arts Integrated approach different in a
non-school setting?
What are some “best practices” in documentation
of student achievement?

MEMORYKEEPERDANCE PROJECT
MEMORIESJudith Levine-Artist in Residence
Melissa Lodhi-Dance TeacherBOOKER VPA High School-Sarasota, Fl.
Students identified the person in their life they wished to honor as the subject of their Memorykeeper. Other dancers read the writings and
underlined the parts to be integrated into the dance.
Written student reflection used as an assessment for the project.
Making a Memorykeeper sculpture touches the student’s heart. This emotion was integrated into
the student’s original choreography.
Students constructed Memorykeeper sculptures focusing on someone special in their life.
Dancers constructed a large sculpture out of all the Memorykeepers.
The original dance interpreted the student’s writings.
