SUMMARY:Special Education Workshop: Functional Skills Instruction & Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Taconic Resources for Independence\, Inc. (TRI) will host a virtual workshop entitled: “Functional Skills Instruction and Strategies for Students with Special Needs” on July 15th from 9:30 – 10:30 am to provide guidance and information to parents of students with special needs regarding functional skills training.\n\nSchool closures across the state have upended special education\, creating an interruption in the leaning process for students with disabilities to adequately understand and practice functional skills.  This workshop is designed for parents to help them address this gap in their child’s educational process.\n\nTRI Special Education Advocates Karen Lynch and Jennifer O’Neill will present at the event and answer questions from attendees.   “Functional skills are those skills a student needs to live independently\,” says O’Neill. “An important goal of special education is for students to learn to achieve as much independence and autonomy as possible\,” she adds\, which applies to children with  emotional\, intellectual\, or physical disabilities.\n\nO’Neill and Lynch will provide information and guidance for families on how to effectively work with their children to help them learn basic functional skills for achieving self-awareness and independence.\n\nTo register for this Zoom event: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0kdOGorzwqG9O9yk5Z6Thc12Ysqh9vhLEU\n\nIf attendees require a Sign Language Interpreter to participate in this meeting\, please contact Karen Lynch by Thursday\, July 9 at 12noon: k.lynch@taconicresources.org
