Retelling Key Events in a Story | English Language Arts Strategies for Students with Cognitive Disabilities
In this self-contained high school classroom, a teacher supports students in retelling the story, including characters and events, after reading a text. Each student has access to the text and a communication system, if needed. The teacher also has access to one of the student's communication systems in order to model the language needed to retell the story. The video demonstrates effective strategies for engaging students with significant cognitive disabilities in literacy instruction.
