 The purpose of this PD is to inform teachers about various
disabilities and how to help these students (as you requested
in the survey)
 More importantly, because of INCLUSION, INCLUSION,
INCLUSION, INCLUSION, INCLUSION, and INCLUSION!
 Student with disabilities are in our classrooms or will be, due
to mainstreaming, by FEDERAL LAW, students with
disabilities have the right to be with and/or spend time with
their general education peers!
 So please, remember, that this presentation is for you and for
your current & future student(s) with disabilities 

right thing to do for OUR kids!

11. A few tips 
1. When you hear the guitar (we are about to talk
about a new disability) and when you hear Happy
we are still on that same topic
2. Do not PANIC! If it seems like we are talking too
fast, don’t worry there will be captions at the end or
along with the presentation & remember you have
a partner 
3. Also look for symbols: for guidance!
