[quote=Anonymous]I’m also confused. If you are pushing into a room that is all non diploma bound kids, you’re not teaching it the same way you would the on grade level class. Teaching social studies is still great - whether it’s about community helpers or maps or basic US history - whatever is on their level. Yes, with word banks and pictures to point to etc. But if there are “bib wearing non verbal kids” in a regular for-credit class who are supposed to be able to pass the regular and state tests there seems to be a bigger problem. Also, don’t confuse non-speaking with not thinking. Push them to see what they’re picking up on - they might surprise you when left to answer questions with accommodations in place - sentence starters with word banks, writing, typing, pointing, matching, even answering yes/no questions. I know it’s hard and you’re kind to be asking questions to try to understand. [/quote]
