I am a special education / hearing impaired teacher. Currently I work with 9th grade hearing impaired students at Hill Regional Career High School in the resource room along with 3 other teachers with students of their own. Resource is a credit class for special education students 9th - 12th grade. I will be teaching my unit to the students who have a resource period next school year.
Tenth grade student are given the Connecticut Academic Performance Test (CAPT), and are expected to pass in order to receive a high school diploma. It is an unfortunate fact that many of our students fail the test and have to take the test a second time in the 11th grade, often this test is also failed and eventually they are required to take a CAPT class in the specific area they failed and than pass an exam at the end of the class. Writing (persuasive essay) as well as Science (weather) are areas on the CAPT. This unit will assist in both of these areas.
