Using Accessibility Tools to help children with additional needs develop their literacy/comprehension skills.

In my school we have 5 specialist classes for children with additional needs alongside our mainstream classes. 3 of the classes are for children with learning difficulties. 2 of the classes are for children with social and communication difficulties.

Because of the inclusive nature of our school a lot of the children in our specialist classes integrate in mainstream classes and enjoy learning alongside their peers.

We want them to be able to access the curriculum in a similar way to their peers and the Speak Tool and Record Audio options on the iPad are ideal in helping children access comprehension texts that their peers complete.

Here is a video showing you how to access the tools.
