Understanding Children with Special Needs and Their Families

Course Number
CS06: 07_EN
Overview
As more early education and care programs include children with special needs, it is important for educators and staff to understand who these children are, the needs of the child and family, and the educational and therapeutic services they typically receive. This course offers an overview of children with special needs and is especially suited for early education and care providers who have not yet included children with special needs in their programs. Information will be offered on Early Intervention and the IFSP, Special Education and the IEP, and the impact on families of having a child with special needs.
Objective
  • Describe various types of special needs or disabilities including their characteristics and qualities,
  • List the ways that including children with special needs impacts early education and care programs, including adaptations to materials, activities, and interactions,
  • Identify the educational, therapeutic, and supportive services that children with special needs usually receive
  • Describe the impact to a family of having a child with significant special needs,
  • Use resources for including children with disabilities in early education and care programs
