Removing Obstacles


When you are working with your students think of adapting your teaching style by making everyday tasks in the art room more manageable. New tools can lead to new possibilities in the art room. However, just changing the tools may not be enough. New spring loaded scissors will be of great assistance for hands who do not have enough strength, although cutting on a line may still be difficult. Try creating a think line to cut on by using a wide marker so that it may be seen easier for students with low vision.  Allowing students to work on a larger scale also encourages greater success.



Larger grips, pencil grips and a variety of scissors are available. Student using tool adaptation and visual adaptation of large dark cutting line.
