Description
The research says thousands of repetitions with variation (moderate differences) are critical to learning any new motor task highlighted by Linda Burkhart's ‘Two Switches for Success’. How is it possible to make this happen on a daily basis in a busy classroom? In this session, we'll review types of switches, their functionalities, and optimal placement. You will learn how to use 4 switch activities, which are often in many schools' AT library. Activities to use the 4 tools to create 100’s of opportunities will be shared. We'll then analyze typical school day routines, equipping you with hundreds of meaningful activities to seamlessly integrate throughout your students' daily schedules. Through collaborative group work, you'll design personalized switch plans tailored to individual students. Using UDL strategies you will develop interdisciplinary lesson plans that incorporate alternative access. You will leave with activities ready for immediate implementation, empowering your students to develop access skills that allow for interdependence in all educational, community, and home settings.
