Abstract: | Adaptations must be made in order to maximize the learning potential of children with visual impairments to compensate for
learning which occurs through visual observation. As the impetus for integration in national and state legislation accelerates,
more young children with visual impairments are being educated in community settings with nondisabled peers. The purpose of
this article is to provide the child-care and preschool teacher with information that may facilitate the development of children
with visual impairments with integrated or inclusive settings. |
