Mr Wilson Will Have a Student with an Intellectual Disability

Mr. Wilson will have a student with an intellectual disability included in his class this year. Her name is Tiffany,and Mr. Wilson is considering what changes he should make to his style of teaching to promote her success. Which one of the following strategies is least likely to be helpful?

A) Mr. Wilson will structure his lesson plans so that all of the children can work at their own pace as much as possible. This will allow Tiffany to go as slowly as she needs to in order to succeed.
B) Mr. Wilson will use the Golden Rule ("Do unto others as you would have them do unto you") to define acceptable behavior in the classroom. He reasons that it will be easier for Tiffany to remember this rule than a more specific list,and it should apply to any unexpected problems that might arise.
C) Mr. Wilson will have Tiffany work with a parent volunteer three times a week to learn simple addition facts. He gives the volunteer specific guidance about how to help Tiffany remember the facts: "Have her say each fact four times in a row and then write the fact four times as well. Review previously learned facts in every session."
D) Mr. Wilson will make an effort to give Tiffany concrete instructions for new tasks so that she knows exactly what she needs to do.
