Being More at Ease with Children Who Have Special Needs

Getting past the labels and fears to see the individual child’s strengths and learning styles helps support the caregiver, child and family. This training will explore:

- Children’s similarities
- Behaviors
- Learning styles
- Adaptations and modifications
- Communication
- Helpful learning strategies and techniques.

Supporting children who have special needs requires knowledge of what works and a commitment to meeting the needs of all children.
