Bring the Noise > Teacher Techniques > Pupils with additional support needs

Watch Ewa deliver a music lesson for young learners with additional learning needs including visual and hearing impairments and neurological conditions.

Ewa has incorporated multisensory learning to the activities and encourages you to get creative with your lesson. She addresses her approach with the following sections:

  • introduce a toy robot and explore the theme
  • listen to the song I Am A Robot on Play It!
  • listen to the song again but remove the vocals leaving just the music
  • go on a multisensory learning journey
  • make robot sounds

Look at the I Am A Robot lesson plan and lyric sheet to start preparing your lesson.
