Worksheets in this Unit
No worksheets are needed for this unit.
Activities included in this section are only those activities that
will be led by the facilitator. Other activities can be found in the
lessons.
- Sibling Descriptions of Brother or Sister With Disabilities
The following articles may provide a good starting point for discussions within your learning group.
- The activity for Lesson 1 asks paraprofessionals to read writings
that describe what it is like to live with a brother or sister with
a disability. Students are asked to identify particular challenges
that these children write about, as well as relationships that are
particularly special. Ask your students to discuss what they found
in these readings and, in particular, what they found regarding the
child's school experience.
- The facilitator could also ask paraprofessionals to talk about observations
they have had on the job that relate to the struggles or successes
that students experience as a result of a disability or as a result
of their relationship with someone who has a disability. How does
this affect the paraprofessional and how they work with students,
etc.?
- Consider using a tracking worksheet
for Paraprofessionals to monitor their progress through the units.
- For information on how to start an online discussion area, see the online
resources section.
