Explain the types of equipment a school may need to accommodate children with severe physical limitations

What will be an ideal response?


Children with severe physical limitations need specialized equipment, such as special chairs or bolsters, to help them participate as much as possible in activities. Children who rely on wheelchairs or walkers for mobility, as well as those with other physical limitations, need paths and entries to learning centers that are wide enough for them to maneuver in an unobstructed way throughout the room. Activity opportunities and shelves from which children select materials should be accessible so that they can be as independent as possible. Similarly, outdoor activities and equipment can be made accessible through modifications such as wide, gently sloped ramps with handrails; raised sand areas; or sling swings that provide secure body support. Modified swings, tricycles, and tables for independent participation in outdoor activities are available and should be provided, if possible.
