Putting disability sport in your General Physical Education Program How did you enter into a sports program? How did you learn the rules, skills, and
strategies for basketball, soccer, volleyball, or tennis?
Through your school physical education program, right?
So why shouldn’t that be the same place for students with disabilities to learn about sport?
Who’s to benefit?
![Page 10: Meeting Interscholastic Sport/Fitness Needs for Students with Disabilities in GPE/APE](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110214/5681596e550346895dc6adc7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Everyone benefits: Students without disabilities can benefit from learning
about sports played by students with disabilities by:Making your curriculum more comprehensive
Broadening the perceptions of SW/OD related to sports
Putting SWD and SW/OD on common ground of sports…think of the reactions if you can get SW/OD to learn the skills of WC basketball or what it would be like for a SWD to have his/her friends say to them “who won your game last night?” or “I’ll be at your game tonight”
Sport is Sport….we should embrace the common ground it provides for learning and social interaction

So how can it be delivered? Through planned
○ Curriculums Same – SWD & SWOD follow same curriculum Multi-level - same curriculum with slight modifications Modified – IEP goals aligned with curriculum goals; SWD
and SWOD doing different activity for same goals Different – SWD unique needs not met in GPE
○ Use of various teaching styles Teacher centered Student centered
○ Use of various class formats 1on 1 Small group Large group Mixed

So why do it? Why try to put Disability Sport in your PE Curriculum?
For the same reason as you do for traditional sportPromote fitness and address issues of
obesityPromote a common ground for All children
to communicate, socialize, and learnBecause it’s the right thing to do
Address the GAO report!
![Page 23: Meeting Interscholastic Sport/Fitness Needs for Students with Disabilities in GPE/APE](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110214/5681596e550346895dc6adc7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Findings from the GAO report on extracurricular activities for SWD After national interviews and survey results the
GAO office stated:
District and school officials cited a lack of information on ways to expand athletic opportunities, lack of clarity regarding schools’ responsibilities, and budget constraints as key challenges.
Education has provided little information or guidance on PE or extracurricular athletics for SWD, and some states and districts said more would be useful.
According to IDEA, sports should be a school responsibility for all children…

Additional Barriers Impacting SWDs Participation in Disability Sport
A lack of: • Opportunity for inclusion• Organized programs• Trained professionals • Knowledge of coaching/training SWDs • Role models• Transportation
