The Educator's Guide to Feeding Children with Disabilities

Résumé du livre

Comprehensive and team-focused, this book provides you with the information you need to design and implement effective feeding plans for students with disabilities. Each chapter identifies and explores a separate component of feeding encountered in school- or center-based situations, such as proper positioning, sensory aspects and how they affect feeding, adapted equipment, and communication and behavioral aspects of feeding. You'll find invaluable advice for addressing common challenges and meeting each child's communication, sensory, and motor needs. Plus the practical guidelines and planning forms help you quickly and easily pull all these components into an individualized feeding plan.
