How to teach students with learning disabilities in high school?

Educators and administrators can do a lot to support students with disabilities in achieving their potential, but it can feel difficult to juggle all the responsibilities of a day alongside these additional steps. Teachers can do to address the needs of their students without feeling overwhelmed by all that they must accomplish through :

• Set the tone from day one

• Support your students in their learning

• Model the behaviors you want to see in your students

• Allow all students to work on the same assignments

• Create resources for all students, not just those with disabilities

• Structure lesson plans to support inclusivity

• Assume your student can do something until proven wrong

• Communicate clearly with students and parents

• Partner students with disabilities with students who do not have disabilities

• Make yourself available
