Hello, I thought you would find the following article interesting. Link: http://www.plan4preschool.org/docs/single/special-needs/ Download: http://www.plan4preschool.org/documents/kt-special-needs.pdf Abstract: This packaged resource, the Knowledge Transfer guide, derives from the Master Plan for the Los Angeles Universal Preschool (LAUP). It is intended to translate the missions and goals of the Master Plan into implementation recommendations for the initial start-up of LAUP, called Early Launch. Special Needs is one of the nine sections of the LAUP Knowledge Transfer guide, authored by the Special Needs task team, and insures that LAUP remains responsive to the needs of children with disabilities and other special needs during its start-up phase. The objectives set by the Special Needs Task Team were to: Develop standards for inclusive services for children with disabilities or other special needs through LAUP Develop standards for what constitutes a fully inclusive preschool site Have at least one model inclusive site committed to providing services to children with special needs during the start-up phase of LAUP Provide background information, including legal information, in a user-friendly format Recommend resources for the development and support of inclusive sites Recommend executive and system level support for the inclusion of children with disabilities and other special needs in LAUP
