Mr. Wilson will have a student with an intellectual disability included in his class for the first time this fall. Her name is Susan, 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 Susan 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. It will be easier for Susan to remember this rule than a more specific list, and it should apply to any unexpected problems that might arise.
c. When teaching math, Mr. Wilson will set up real-life scenarios such as going to the store or balancing a checkbook. That will help Susan know when to apply the skills she learns.
d. Mr. Wilson will make an effort to give Susan complete instructions, step by step, and not assume that she will understand directions he doesn't make explicit.
