The workshop will provide an overview of the specific learning needs characteristic of students with Down syndrome and other intellectual disabilities, and define their academic impact.  The workshop provides all participants with the skills to recognize and implement curricular programs that incorporate essential design elements targeting known learning needs. Workshop attendees will walk away with a tool kit of tips and strategies, along with practical information to help students succeed in inclusive settings.

As an educator for over 30 years (B.S. in elementary education and graduate studies), research clinician, author, and parent of a child with Down syndrome, Ms. Peoples has spent the past thirteen years exploring, evaluating, and    designing curricular materials and methods to improve the educational experience of children with Down syndrome and other intellectual disabilities.

This workshop is appropriate for ALL educators (public and private schools, churches, daycares, and preschools), parents, family members, paraprofessionals, medical  professionals, and service providers who interact with children who have Down Syndrome and other intellectual disabilities.
