Physical disabilities in the Classroom
When considering physical disabilities in the classroom, we cannot generalize about all physical limitations that our students many have as if they were the same. Because the term physical disabilities describes such a wide range of exceptionalities, from as mild as a broken arm to as severe as conditions that leave children permanently wheelchair bound, Here we will look at 4 specific examples of physical disabilities. The implications, interventions, and strategies discussed for each can be modified or used for any child with a physical disability. Many of the resources used contain information specific to other disabilities.
