Early Childhood Special Education

Because this such a large and diverse group of disabilities, we are going to focus on helping children transition from one setting to another (prek to kindergarten). Because many of the children with these disabilities do not have delays in learning, but may have delays in physical, language or socio-emotional milestones, this is a good module to look at transitions more closely. Choose a strategy discussed in the readings or from another professional source. Then answer the following questions:

1. Name the strategy you chose.

2. Give the citation (url or other citation).

3. Tell why this is an effective strategy to use in managing transitions for young children with disabilities. Write at least one paragraph. 

4. Tell what disabilities this strategy would work well with. If it's most of them, you don't need to list all the disability groups, just say it's good for most children with disabilities and then tell why. 

Remember that not all the strategies in the readings may be appropriate for children with disabilities, so choose carefully!
