About the Program
How do you go about designing a classroom where the needs of every student can be
supported, and every student, no matter their ability, can be successful? During this
session, participants will explore tools and strategies designed to increase communication,
engagement, and access to the curriculum. In addition, participants will learn about
a program for supporting students in the low incidence, autism, and PreK classrooms
through assistive technology as well as building capacity of staff supporting these
programs.
Participants will learn:
- to identify at least one tool and strategy for increasing communication in a low
incidence, autism, or PreK classroom.
- to identify at least one tool and strategy for increasing access to the curriculum
in the low incidence, autism, or PreK classroom.
- about a professional resource that enables administrators to create accessible classrooms
and build capacity of staff supporting low incidence, autism, or PreK classrooms.
