Król-Gierat, Werona
Journal of the International Association of Special Education, v15 n2 p147-150 Fall 2014
The aim of the present paper is to show how captioned tactile jigsaw flashcards (CTJF) can be used in teaching English vocabulary to children with special educational needs. The idea of the following technique, inspired by Montessori's Three Period Lesson (1964, 1967a, 1967b), was presented by this author and colleague Dorota Beltkiewicz in March 2012 during the "Child with Special Educational Needs in the Perspective of Integral Development" conference organized by Jan Kochanowski University in Kielce, Poland, as well as during the Open Days of the Pedagogical University of Cracow, Poland, in 2012 and 2013. It was implemented and tested in two first grade primary classes in Ludwika Wawrzynska Inclusive School Complex nr 105 in Cracow in the second term of the 2012/2013 school year.
