Supporting Learners Series: The Whole Child: Being Supported

Taking a whole child approach helps us focus beyond solely academics to include thinking about a student’s social-emotional, physical and safety needs. Designed with the whole child in mind, this module will focus on the tenant of being supported and what that could mean for students with visual impairment.

Participants will:

• Recognize how students need to be supported in the classroom setting using a whole child approach.
• Describe resources to help support families of students with visual impairments.
• Identify those professionals that provide support to students with visual impairments in the classroom.
