Inclusion Through Sports
Author: Ronald W. Davis

Learn how to use sport as the common element to build an effective physical education program that includes students with and without disabilities. Inclusion Through Sports is not merely a how-to for disability sport; it presents games and activities derived from six popular disability sports that will improve appropriate services to students wi... more »th disabilities and broaden and enrich your curriculum for all students. If you are a teacher with minimal or no training in adapted physical education and you're being asked to teach students with disabilities, then this book is for you! The disability sports featured in this book are promoted through organizations that conduct national or international competitions, so students learn skills that they'll have a greater opportunity to use throughout their lifetime. Specific inclusion suggestions address the psychomotor, cognitive, and affective domains, so students with disabilities can play decision-making roles that engage them as full participants. Whether you want to present a disability sport in its entirety or integrate selected disability sport skills into your sport units, Inclusion Through Sports shows you how. After an introductory section, you'll find two disability sports for each of three categories: ? Invasion games ? Net games ? Court games and track events For each sport you'll find an assortment of individual, small group, and teamwork games, complete with easy-to-follow adaptation guidelines. Each game is organized by skills taught, formation, equipment, description, and extension. The games also are grouped according to functional profiles for students with low, moderate, and high ability, so you can easily tailor your class activities to the capabilities of your students. You'll also find these helpful features: ? A handy inclusion index that enables you to quickly find a sport and identify which disability sports use the same skills from your general physical education curriculum ? 228 illustrations that clearly depict the games and techniques used, including wheelchair positioning, purchasing, and maintenance ? 36 student functional profiles to help you modify activities for students with low, moderate, and high ability ? Several examples of how to apply the games to the assessment and IEP (individualized education plan) process Inclusion Through Sports helps teachers expand students' awareness of disability sports and provide rich, individualized sport experiences for all students.
