Physical Activity Accessible Choice Board

How to Be Safe In Physical Activity Make sure your learners are in comfortable clothing and ready to MOVE! Make sure the space is large enough for play. If your game requires equipment, make sure it is accessible for all your learners. Encourage your learners to ask for help and how to ask for it when they need it.

Accommodations General Accommodations What are accommodations? Accommodations are supports that are provided to help the student learn and demonstrate their skills. Why should we provide accommodations? We should always be accommodating our learners. This gives everyone the opportunity to be successful in a variety of ways. In each of the games on the choice board, a set of accommodations are provided to allow the learner to demonstrate their learning in a different way, make the game easier or more challenging, and most importantly support your learner to find the joy in movement!
