As an adapted physical educator, I am thinking about the words making it 'easier' or 'simple' and the efforts my student put forth to raise their arm against gravity, demonstrate arm extension against their tight muscles and body coordination to stabilize their body to push a ball down a ramp. What may seem easy or simple, certainly is not for everyone. However, we celebrate the efforts of our students as they grow.
Respectfully, as disabled person, I don't have a problem with the terms "easier" or "simple" in this context. The target of this audience was clearly able-bodied people, particularly parents and teachers and from their perspective those words accurately describe the types of accommodations many of us disabled people benefit from. We live in an able-centric world, so to me it doesn't diminish or detract from the effort we put in to accomplish our own goals by framing it this way.
Accessibility, exposure, modifications, participation.
:)
Kindly give a lesson plan layout for adapted physical education .
Sounds like a great prompt for chat GPT! We aren't teachers so lesson plans aren't our thing at all, sorry!!
