Stockall, Nancy S.; Dennis, Lindsay; Miller, Melinda
TEACHING Exceptional Children, v45 n1 p10-17 Sep-Oct 2012
Universal design for learning (UDL), an outgrowth of the architectural model of universal design, has been widely researched as a promising method of supporting the growth and development of all children. The focus of this article is UDL in the preschool. To begin, the principles of UDL are outlined and explained. Next, UDL as it applies to a preschool curriculum is discussed. Specific areas of the curriculum including goals/methods, materials, and technology are highlighted. Within each of these curricular areas, suggestions for modifications for children with specific disabilities are also included. Practical application of UDL is provided through use of specific examples and vignettes. (Contains 3 tables.)
