Assignment

Students often arrive to school facing numerous challenges in their personal life. Educators are charged with the daunting task of teaching the student, no matter what challenges are present. It is important to understand what issues a family may be facing, to know where to find resources that may be of assistance, and to communicate that information to families effectively.

Choose three parental/guardian challenges to post on the school's parent/guardian resource page from the list below:

Financial issues

Limited opportunities for recreation and leisure

Sibling issues

Constant care and supervision of a child with a disability

Increased potential for marital problems

Logistical issues such as transportation

Difficulty getting time away from job to care for a child with a disability

Frequent disability-related crises

Health issues of other family members

Difficulties obtaining appropriate educational services for child with disability

Design a 10-15 slide digital presentation that describes each of the three challenges you selected.

Include the following:

Potential solutions

Strategies

A mix of five state and national resources that could help parents facing such challenges

Presenter's notes, a title slide, a reference slide

In addition, using the resources you identified in your presentation, create a one-page handout that outlines the resources from your presentation for parents.

Include the following in your handout:

Name of resource

Link or copy of resource

Rationale of the purpose of each resource and how it supports the identified challenge

Support your findings with a minimum of three scholarly resources.
