Extractions: Adaptive Physical Education I believe students with special needs bring unique characteristics to a classroom. Students with special needs may need assistance in certain daily activities, but in the same respect, he or she should be treated like any other person. The type and amount of assistance one might need depends on each individual. One should not assume that a student with special needs is incapable of doing anything. But just the opposite, a teacher should notice and appreciate all the things a student with special needs can offer to the classroom. I feel a student with special needs challenges a teacher to be the best he or she can be. I believe my responsibility to students with special needs is to provide a safe and open educational environment. As an educator, it is also my obligation to help educate and guide students to achieve success in both their academic and real life situations, no matter what their level of abilities. In order to be an effective teacher for children with special needs it is important for me to be imaginative and willing to explore new methods of learning for a child.

Extractions: GRAND RAPIDS AUTISM PROGRAM IDEA '97 and The Michigan Special Education Rules and Regulations, require that each IEPT address Physical Education (PE) for every special education student. In Grand Rapids, PE is required for all students K-8 and for 3 semesters of high school. Preschool students would not have PE, but would have a gross motor component in their program that would address physical needs and development. For students in a center-based program, the age equivalents would be 6 through 16. If students have met the school district requirement for PE, PE must still be considered at the student's IEP, if the team determines that the student would benefit from additional PE beyond the district requirement. A difference between Adaptive PE and Specially Designed PE is in who provides the service: Specially Designed PE can be provided by staff other than an Adaptive PE teacher (General Ed. PE teacher, special education teacher or aide with Adaptive PE consultation), and Adaptive PE must be provided by an Adaptive PE Teacher. Another difference is in the goals on the IEP. If the student needs motor movement goals and they couldn't be met in Specially Designed PE, they need Adaptive PE. In Adaptive PE, their goals must be reported by the classroom teacher or PT, in consultation with the Adaptive PE Teacher. In Specially designed PE, the student's goals may be social, emotional or behavioral.
Inclusion Classroom meet the needs of our special needs community teachers, with assistance from the specialeducation assistants The adaptive pe teacher and the regular pe teacher http://seamonkey.ed.asu.edu/~hixson/chansmith/inclusion.html
Extractions: **This article was written in the Fall of 1991 by Kathy Smith and Patty Chan. Since then, the Inclusion Model classroom has been a successful part of the Carminati community. The program is constantly evolving and changing to meet the needs of our special needs community. If you would like to know more about our model, please e-mail us! ** The PALS (self contained special educations students) program had been on the Carminati campus for six years. During this time, students with mental handicaps had been mainstreamed in small groups into regular PE and Music. They also participated in special activities, field trips and assemblies with their non-handicapped peers. Although the program was considered a success, Kathy Smith, the special education teacher, and Patty Chan, 3rd grade teacher, felt that it would be possible to achieve even greater integration and assimilation of the students by doing some restructuring of the physical environment and stretching our "educational paradigms". Carminati's principal, Nancy Haugen, shared the excitement, and the result has been an exciting dream come true of students with and without handicaps learning side by side, and often together in the same setting.

From OT's who attended: This workshop was helpful in my school based OT treatment. I thoroughly enjoyed the collaboration model. I like the concepts introduced. Although I am an OT student, this info will help me to become a great OT in the pediatric field. Even if I plan to work in a clinic, learning about school based OT gave me a better perspective. Great presentation! I will recommend this training to all. I would like to look at writing a grant for the principals, psychologists, APE, etc. to attend your seminar. Thank you for defining educational OT vs. medical/clinical model OT. You're doing a great job!
