Description
Summary:Outlined is a Title III early childhood at home project which involves a team approach to the education of 40 handicapped and 75 nonhandicapped rural, disadvantaged children, their parents, and/or babysitters in West Virginia. It is noted that four teams consisting of a teacher and paraprofessionals visit homes to instruct baby sitters or parents in devising individualized programs for the children. Instruction is said to involve cognitive, affective, and psychomotor activities, and materials such as clay and puzzles. Considered are required preservice training, facilities such as a small office for storage, costs, and outcomes such as parental awareness of available services, and potential training of babysitters by the Welfare Department.
