Inclusive Strategies for Children's Partial Participation in Activities

This guidance outlines the Principle of Partial Participation where all children can engage in activities based on their abilities. Various strategies such as modifying materials, altering task requirements, prompting or mediation, and providing direct assistance are discussed. Examples of modifying materials include zipper extenders, velcro fasteners, and microswitches. Altering task requirements can involve changes like shaking instead of whisking or reducing the number of items. Prompting/mediation methods range from physical assistance to verbal prompting. Providing direct assistance involves completing parts of tasks for children with disabilities or cognitive impairments.
