The open-endedness and process orientation of art can serve as a reprieve from the highly focused tasks often used in special education. Imagine that you are in an early childhood education setting, and you are the lead art teacher. Using this information and support and guidance from Lesson 3, determine how you would create a curriculum in art that accommodates diverse learners.Part 1: Explain why it is important to have a curriculum in art that accommodates diverse learners.Part 2: Provide an example of an activity for children with each of the following:Emotional and intellectual challengesVisual impairmentsHearing impairmentsOrthopedic impairmentsYou may use the ideas in the textbook as springboards, but do not copy them. Come up with ideas of your own that show you understand the needs of the child with that particular challenge or impairment.Hide RubricsRubric Name: Assignment 4 RubricThis table lists criteria and criteria group name in the first column.
