Disability Dialogue with Teachers

Students have questions about disabilities but often do not have a forum in which to ask them. It is important that students learn when they are young so we can decrease bullying and promote acceptance of differences. A simple idea is to invite a guest speaker to talk and answer questions. Another option is to offer a detailed five- day unit for teachers to teach students. Day 1 is the topic of discrimination Day 2- is sensory and mobility disabilities. Day 3 is learning Disabilities. Day 4 is developmental disabilities. Day 5 is autistic Disabilities, Each day offers explanations, experiential activities, and questions for students of all ages. Parents and professionals, are welcome guests. Videos for each topic are also meaningful.
