This activity is designed to help students with vision impairments develop increasing practice and comfort with requesting assistance, in progressively more challenging situations.
This activity encourages individuals to learn about and describe their vision impairments and any additional disabilities, as a step toward self-determination.
This activity introduces students with visual impairments to personal task management, which includes skills in a variety of areas of the Expanded Core Curriculum (ECC), such as self-determination, independent living, and compensatory skills.
In this activity, students who are blind or visually impaired develop self-determination skills by making choices about participating in an activity and then taking responsibility for planning the actual activity.
Learning to take care of plants is a good way to practice independent living skills, such as planning, organization, problem solving and taking responsibility.
