On 1-st March 2023 we held the fourth workshop on the project with 14-year-old students from “St.Paisii Hilendarski” Secondary School, Plovdiv. Students from different backgrounds, a student with special educational needs, hyperactive students, as well as visually impaired students participated in that workshop. Observers and assistants were parents and students from the University of Plovdiv.
The students were divided into pairs. Each pair was given an English text. The text was placed in a remote location and one student of the pair had to go to the text and memorize the maximum number of words, then return to their partner and dictate what they remembered. The partner of the student had to write the text on their Chromebook (the students are taught with such devices). The aim of the lesson was to write as much of the text as possible and to spell it correctly in English.
The student with special educational needs, with the help of a parent, a student and a classmate, got involved with the task with interest, trying to write letters on the Chromebook and learn some words. All students participated with interest and everyone helped each other to the maximum extent.
The class ended successfully and everyone was satisfied with the results achieved. That showed us that the inclusive process was successful.
The workshop lasted 40 minutes.
