My students are 4th and 5th graders who are in an inclusion setting at a public school with varying disabilities ranging from Autism to Specific Learning Disabilities to Mental Retardation. They are students who attend school on a regular basis and give 110% everyday to learn material that comes naturally to most of their peers. During the school day, they are confident when they receive support from the learning support staff. When they get home, it is another story.
Most of these students are visual and auditory learners that count on modifications to get through their school day successfully. They need extra help when they get home to complete their work and many do not receive the help that they need at that time due to working parents or a lack of educational experience in the home. Many times homework is incomplete, lost, or simply not turned in. The students lose confidence when this occurs and it can be difficult to get them back to where they were the day before.
