What supports do teachers and students need in an inclusive high school classroom?
One of the important things to remember is that good teaching is good teaching. The supports that you provide to students with disabilities can also be helpful to students who do not have identified disabilities. In our research, several supports and strategies seemed to “bubble up.” The successful teachers followed a routine, using a consistent pattern for the instructional period. Using routines was the basis of lesson structure. Mnemonics were also a helpful way for students to remember content. Graphic organizers were also important. Cooperative learning and group work are natural supports students helping other students just because they are sitting next to them and could use some help. The thing to remember about supports as that they are built on the assumption that each student or teacher has a gift, a talent, something to contribute. A helper today receives help tomorrow. A teacher who asks for support in designing an assessment for a student will be helping another teacher pl
