Have you ever heard, thought, or said that a student does not qualify for orientation and mobility because they are not moving? What is your role as an O&M when the student is not moving? How does a child begin to move? If you are unsure what to do, then this session is for you!
This session will highlight the importance of movement through play to develop the fundamental skills necessary for future development. From evaluation to services, play and movement are essential to the student’s development. The targeted population is students with visual impairments from birth to 48 months, or students functioning at this developmental level. All participants will make a device for their student as well as a jumpstart to ideas for your caseload.
