This class is designed as a social experience for any student who has a disability and is looking for some social interaction, fostering new friendships, or enhancing their communication skills. This class will serve as an opportunity to communicate with others and make new friends. Students will also practice turn-taking and listening. The small group will benefit students and hopefully foster some independence and confidence! This class is formatted as a “show and share”. Students should come prepared with an object, a skill, a new fact they learned, or anything they want to share with the group! The possibilities are endless! Please note that while this class is open to any student who has a disability, students who do not have a way to communicate via video chat, may not benefit from the class. Please contact me if you have any questions and I will be happy to work with you to ensure this class is as inclusive as possible. I look forward to making new friends and learning from the students!
Learning Goals
Students in this class will have the opportunity to show and share something special to them, which will result in communication skills, peer interaction, fostering friendships, turn-taking, and a sense of confidence.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been working specifically with individuals with disabilities (including autism, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Global Developmental Delays, and nonverbal to name a few) ranging from 3-18 years-old for over seven years and currently work in Inclusive Recreation where I create and implement fun recreational opportunities for members of my community who have disabilities, which is very important to me. Some of the recreation opportunities I have created are adapted camps, movement programs, art programs, inclusive holiday events, and sporting events. Additionally, in this position, I have also taught hundreds of staff how to accommodate, program plan, and support children with various exceptionalities. Furthermore, I am a certified educator in Canada with a Special Education Part 1 certification, a Masters in Child Study and Education, a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Studies and a minor in Psychology. I have learned extensively about disability and childhood development in all of these programs as well as how to appropriately accommodate and adapt programming and lessons for various needs. Lastly, I have had many experiences working in rehabilitation hospitals and Special Education classrooms where I worked hands-on teaching and creating programming and lessons that supported the various needs of my students who all had a range of disabilities.Reviews
