Teaching Students with Intellectual Disability

Captions available

The idea

Students with intellectual disability benefit from more time and practice, well-timed specific praise, goals broken into doable steps, instruction in adaptive and functional skills, and inclusion in group activities.

In practice

A teacher breaks "make a sandwich" into six steps and praises each one mastered.

Where people slip

Materials should be simpler without being insultingly childish.

Your place on the trail

Every lesson rests on earlier ones and opens later ones. Tap any to jump.

Unlocks
