Right now 8 students crowd around a small rectangular table with two single desks pushed up to the end, as we use a borrowed small TV to watch examples of math problems and reading strategies get worked out for them. I have students with vision problems that squint at the screen while getting in the way of other students trying to copy down what they see. It's cramped and difficult to get across concepts because they can't interact with the material until after everything is explained.
With a projector and kidney table we could spread out and work together to grasp concepts hands-on. Imagine a passage at each students desk and a set of comprehension questions projected on the board. One students takes an expo and underlines the words they are struggling with. My student who has difficulty seeing is on the floor right in front without bothering anyone and can focus on actual work. Another student is raising a hand to help explain a word that our first student underlined. It turns the entire experience into an interactive student led learning process.
My student learn best this way. They deserve to be taught in a way that will help them not frustrate them. And these are supplies that most teachers have readily available. We just need a little help adding these things to the special education intervention room. Help us create a hands-on classroom for my kiddos.
