Dance and Movement■ Start out in small, confined spaces- gradually move to larger spaces,
■ Keep environment safe and consistent
■ Repetition- rhythm and dance should be familiar
■ Students may feel more comfortable first using movement when they are grounded (sitting or lying on the floor (Green Gilbert)
■ Tactile props can mark routes
■ Use concrete examples that students have had experience with
■ Think about how the child experiences the theme (Tree example)
■ For child with very limited hearing, make music, rhythm, and beats visual and tactile (e.g., pulsing lights)

Preschool class: Painting with balls
■ Hinckley: 5 years old, CVI, no functional use of vision, limited motor control, weak grasp, history of hearing loss
■ Tactually defensive, art was not meaningful despite attempts at adaptations
■ He likes balls, so we chose different textures, sizes and materials- golf balls, marbles, ping pong balls that made different noises.
■ Solar system, different thicknesses of paper so he could differentiate between “planets”
■ High contrast- black background, metallic paint
