How The Implementation of Flexible Seating Arrangements Within A Year 5 Classroom Impacts Student Engagement and Academic Progress

Aimee Barlow
This research project was developed after observing that a number of my students were not sitting at our traditional, neurotypical style tables and chairs, along with a wheelchair-aided student who was struggling to sit at the higher, Year 5 tables and chairs. Differentiation by outcome and activities is a part of how teachers are assessed as educators, but why are our classrooms not differentiated?

Bridging Inclusion to the Mainstream Classroom: Assessing the Impact of Pull-Out Classes on Meeting IEP Goals for SEN Students

Mary Joy Magsakay
This action research looks at how pull-out sessions affect the achievement of a student's IEP goals, specifically the reading progress of three Year 8 SEN students, with an emphasis on comprehension, vocabulary, and inferencing.

How can additional small group art-sessions impact students with Special Education Needs in terms of confidence, mindset, and academic success?

Elizabeth Wasserman
Students with learning disabilities often become disengaged with their learning process. This personal frustration leads to low personal self-esteem, causing anxiety. Art-integration can help students to rebuild their self-esteem through its therapeutic qualities and can be transferrable in other subject fields (Harper, 2013).
