Here are some examples of adaptations and accommodations that can be made for teaching students with special needs:
- Provide modified assignments and assessments that are tailored to students' ability levels. This could include altering length or complexity requirements.
- Use multi-sensory teaching methods that engage both visual and auditory learners, such as showing images and diagrams alongside verbal explanations.
- Break down large assignments into smaller, more manageable tasks with clear deadlines. This helps prevent students from feeling overwhelmed.
- Allow extra time for students to complete tests and assignments, both in and out of the classroom.
- Provide copies of notes or allow students to audio record lessons so they can review material afterwards.

2. • LP’s a are not written for teachers to read to
the class; but to structure the lesson and to
help with the flow of the class
• Research indicates that all students benefit
from, and appreciate well-structured lessons.
• LP’s determine the curriculum; that is, what the
children will learn
• LP’s determine what the students already know
• LP’s determine at least one way to assist the
students in learning the new curriculum
• LP’s determine at least one way to evaluate the
learning outcomes of the students.
3. • The objectives of the lesson do not specify what
to observe
• The lesson assessment is disconnected from the
objectives
• The prerequisites are not specified or are
inconsistent with what is actually required to
succeed with the lesson
• The materials specified in the lesson are
extraneous
• The instruction in which the teacher will engage
is not efficient
• The student activities described in the lesson
plan do not contribute to the achievement of the
objectives
4. purpose is to communicate
is the focal point of a lesson plan
describes an intended learning
outcome
determines the criteria for any
assessment
are evidences of learning
aligned with the aims of education
Develops critical and creative thinking
6. S – specific
M – measurable
A – Attainable
R – Result Oriented
T – Time bounded
7. The student will demonstrate metric
measurement of length.
Given a metric ruler, the students will
measure the length of common linear objects
to the nearest millimeter.
The students will solve addition problems
with 80% accuracy.
Given two numbers not written in equation
form, the students will place the numbers in
equation form and add them together
8. Learning is an active process
The more senses involve in learning, the
better
A non- threatening atmosphere enhances
learning
Learning is meaningful when it is connected
to students
Good teaching goes beyond recall of info.
Integrated teaching approach is effective
9. Involving Students in Real-life
Problem Solving (research, case
study..)
Using Projects to Increase Meaning
and Motivation (multi-media)
Simulations and Role Plays
Using Visual Processing
Games, Puzzles, Songs…

10. Are aids to instruction
Choose aids that best suits your
students
Use variety of tools
Check your materials before the
class
Abide the utilization guide in using
media
14. Advantages:
Are easy to obtain
Can convey a number of information
Effective than oral or written statements
reusable
Disadvantages:
Choosing is a problem
Handling needs much care
Difficulty in choosing the size, how it should be
mounted, etc.
15. Pictures are not outdated
Small pictures are difficult to see
Pictures should be organized
Should be easily seen, attractive and
accurate
Can be mounted on hard paper or
laminated for protection
16.
17. a quiz,
a journal entry,
a pair work activity,
an essay,
a test,
a class discussion,
or an oral question/answer activity
It should match with the objectives
of the lesson
18. one of the best tools in promoting effective
learning
continues to be an essential component of
good teaching
Measure teacher’s effectiveness
involves knowledge of the various uses,
characteristics, techniques and handling the
learner’s response.
It takes many years of classroom experience,
professional reading, and self-evaluation for
a teacher to be a proficient questioner
19. Questions should be asked in a natural and
well-modulated voice.
A teacher should ask the question first, and
then wait for the class to think about it
before calling on anybody to answer the
question.
A sufficient number of questions should be
asked to stimulate learners to activity.
A teacher should refrain from repeating
questions
20. Questions should be evenly distributed so
that the majority of the pupils can take part
in the discussion
A teacher should avoid resorting to any
mechanical system of fielding questions to
the class, such as by alphabetical order, or
row by row
A teacher should ask questions that are
really interesting and thought-provoking

Category of Questions
22. Convergent questions have only one correct
answer, and test rote knowledge of concrete
facts.
Examples of these questions include multiple
choice, definitions, true/false, fill in the
blank and calculations where there is only
one correct answer.
23. Divergent questions have no single correct
answer, and are more analytical,
testing the students’ ability to synthesize
information,
offer educated opinions or create hypotheses
based on their knowledge.
These types of questions are always open-
ended, allowing the students to express
themselves as they demonstrate their ability
to reason in the subject.

teaching students with special needs
