Movement is central to brain development and learning in all human beings. Children with significant physical and health challenges who are visually impaired also benefit greatly from learning to move, even in limited ways. This presentation will share information about the benefits of movement in learning foundational concepts, developing spatial awareness skills, and most importantly, getting these children moving. COMS will learn specific strategies and resources to use in delivering orientation and mobility instruction to these students in face-to-face and home settings.
Captioning will be provided, if you need anything else, please email Kaycee Bennett. Some logistics will be different with our Coffee Hours, as compared to the past, but you can expect the same commitment to providing information, discussion, and collaboration on topics important to students who are blind, visually impaired, or Deafblind.
