Alternative Placement 

Alternative placement allowed me to experience teaching in a different setting in an inclusive learning environment. This placement consisted of teaching students with severe learning needs. The schemes I was teaching needed to be extremely basic and literal. Show and tell demonstrations were helpful for the students to learn the process of making the artworks.

​

This experience in Red Hill will assist me when teaching mainstream in terms of differentiation, adaptability of approaches and methodologies. I learned alot about sensory art and making connections of the well-being programme in second level. I feel this experience will help me to deliver the well-being programme in secondary school. 

 

Below is a screen-cast showing  the students work.
