My district is located in a very large urban area with a diverse population . Students that I see in the Homebound Dept. are unable to attend classes at school due to multiple disabilities and fragile health. My students are primarily at the elementary level. However, I do have two teen boys who are soon to graduate. Yet, they all have serious medical conditions and require their core curriculum be received at home. I build my lesson plans around the literature or social studies and include basic prerequisite skills. To enhance the literature and meet the goals and objectives, I need some representations of animals, community helpers, and people from around the world. Using real objectives with the literature and other parts of the curriculum, the students can hold the items and get some sense of what we hear in the story. I also use audio/video stories and music to support the academic lessons. Students relate to all of this with smiles, positive movements, or eye gaze.
