Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Blind Child Becomes a Member of Your Class Your responsibility to the Visually handicapped child in your group is the same as your responsibility to other pupils. You help them to develop physically, socially, intellectually, and morally. A teacher must take every child where he is and lead him as far as the limitations and potentialities of both the child and teacher permit.\ Try to remember that if you are a good teacher for sighted children you can also be a good teacher for a blind child. Teach ing and learning processes are fundamentally the same. Some adaptations will be necessary in methods and materials. To help you with this aspect of having a blind child in your group, you will have the support not only of the administrator of the school program, but also of a resource teacher. This teacher may be located in your building, or in some instances an itinerant teacher will come to help you for certain scheduled hours each week. These specially prepared helpers will guide you and the Visually handicapped child in the use of any special tools or tech niques appropriate for his instruction.

Download or read book Getting Ready for College Begins in Third Grade written by Carol Castellano and published by IAP. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All parents hope for an independent future for their blind/visually impaired child. To turn that hope into a reality, parents need to understand the scope of skill development that must be addressed, along with the importance of equal expectations for the child's development, proper training, and opportunity to practice and develop skills. But what if expectations are low, training in blindness skills is scanty or even absent, and overprotection prevents the blind/VI child from learning and practicing skills? The idea of an independent future can remain a distant dream. The purpose of this book is to guide parents and teachers in fostering the blind/visually impaired child's skill development in such critical areas as academics, independent movement and travel, social interaction, daily living, and self-advocacy, so that he or she will truly be on the road to an independent future. A practical, easy to use guide, written in plain English, the book warns about common problem areas and provides ideas for getting and keeping the child's education and development on track. It highlights the interplay between skills and competence, confidence, self-respect, and the respect of others. Of the small number of books and videos available on the subject, most were written by professionals in the field and many begin with the supposition that blindness is at best sad and at worst tragic. Few --maybe none --have the ardent passion for independence that the parent of a blind/visually impaired child brings to the subject. Instead of overwhelming parents and teachers with the difficulty of the undertaking before them, Getting Ready for College Begins in Third Grade will inspire their confidence and enthusiasm for the task at hand.
