Fact Sheet Discussion Board
Instruction :
Fact Sheet Discussion Board. First, attach your 1-page fact sheet (1-page word document only) on the DB based on your research paper topic. Post on the Wednesday before the Sunday due date giving time for your classmates to read and comment. Include a summary of the disability, how it affects a child, and what modifications and accommodations may be appropriate. Think about what you would want to get if this were the only page you would read about the disability. You may also include information for where your peers can get additional information on the disability. Then, comment a minimum of twice on a minimum of 2 different days – focus on deepening the conversation by asking a question, for clarification, or reflecting on your experience as it relates to the topic.
