Technology is powerful. :)

I use google docs or Word to give the students an opportunity to see and edit actual writing samples.  This is especially effective in the teaching of research paper format. Students "share" their document with me, we bring it up on the Smartboard, and as a class we edit the paper.  It is beneficial to use real writing samples to explain MLA citations and research paper format.  Students willing to share their work walk away with completely edited papers--which usually makes them more than willing to share!

To accommodate a student with MD, we played Paralympic Sitting Volleyball in my 9th period class. In this game, you have to have your pelvis entact with the ground.The net is set at a height of approximately 3 feet and I small sided the court to make the volleys last longer. My able-bodied kids enjoyed the game a lot and worked really well with the student in a chair.
