This course covers with the skills to adeptly execute diverse physical activity programs tailored to the specific requirements of individuals with disabilities within K-12 school settings. The focus of the course lies in addressing considerations for physical activity programming and understanding the characteristics of individuals dealing with developmental, physical, emotional, sensory, health, learning, and/or multiple disabilities. This course begins with an understanding of the term disability followed by the legal mandates that define school policy and student placement. Throughout the course an overview of disability will be analyzed with readings that include an analysis of the social medical models designed to challenge the social construction of disability and orientations for practice. Classroom time will also include direct teaching of individuals with disabilities in physical activity settings.
