On Friday morning, our class began our DASH (Disability Awareness Starts Here) sessions with many parent volunteers. The students participated in activities which simulated various fine motor disabilities. The purpose of these activities is to have students understand that, despite a disability, there are many things that a person with disabilities can do if they have the right adaptations. Students experienced what it might be like to have a fine motor disability, then tried using the various tools that might provide assistance. Ask your student what they thought of our Friday morning DASH session.
