The art teacher showed the students a picture of Van Gough and he explained a brief
history about him that he is a deaf person who is well known for his paintings. On the next slide,
Van Gough’s artwork displayed on the Smart TV and the teacher shared that the students will be
attempting to paint a replicate of Van Gough’s work. The art teacher reminded the students that it
is okay if they are unable to replicate Van Gough’s artwork as exact as it is (C) (T).
The art teacher promoted the students to focus on the details from the painting, which
includes: background, flowers, leaf and vase (C). The teacher asked students to watch him as he
demonstrate how would he draw the vase with flowers (C) (R). When the art teacher drew an
example, student D looked at the table and the one-one-teacher aide prompted him to look at the
art teacher. After the art teacher’s demonstration, student B drew flowers and leaf using pencil on
a drawing pad paper. The student showed his artwork to the art teacher with a pride and the art
teacher complimented WOW THAT’S GOOD! (C) The art teacher added a statement BUT YOU
MISS ONE THING LOOK AT THE PICTURE as he pointed on the Smart TV and the student
observed the picture (R) (T). As the student was unable to response, the art teacher asked the

teacher replied YES VASE (C) (R).
The art teacher explained student D’s one-one teacher aide that the student will focus on
drawing a handshape that describes his feeling for example: open B for HAPPY (C) (D). As the
art teacher worked with assisting student B’s drawing, student D and one-one-teacher aide sat
quietly. When the art teacher finished with helping student B he moved to student D and
discussed with the teacher aide about determining what to draw for student D (C) (R). As they
discussed ideas, the art teacher decided to promote student D with drawing a tree in related to his
personal identity (K) (R). The art teacher placed his arm on the paper and used pencil to trace his
arm and hand.
