Children with visual impairments, blindness, or deaf-blindness (including students with multiple disabilities) have unique educational needs. In addition, they have very specific needs related to learning in physical education. Physical education is important, as it can cover all domains of behavior, including the affective, cognitive, and the psychomotor. Physical education also covers all of the nine Expanded Core Curriculum components when done correctly. The purpose of this presentation is to teach professionals the specific strategies to teach children with visual impairments in the elementary ages. This includes a variety of resources for participants to take home and share with colleagues and parents.
