Integration Checklist

4.00

Use the integration checklist as a daily monitoring system for your learners in the integration classroom. Use the check boxes to indicate accommodations needed and any changes to programming that took place. Record tasks that demonstrated independence, needed some help and those that were too difficult in order to adjust your programming accordingly. Print multiple copies for daily use.

OUR PHILOSOPHY
The Play Beyond The Label movement is focused on building a sense of belonging through three key concepts:

Play
Quality physical activity is the vehicle enabling all learners to play. Intentional programming will not only ensure that learners are participating, but also building the skills and knowledge to experience the joy of movement.
Beyond
Creating an inclusive environment requires a mindset that goes beyond the framework of a well-planned program. It involves an understanding of preferences, appropriate accommodations and modifications for each unique learner.
Label
Recognize the label as the gateway to appropriate and meaningful programming. Acceptance starts by understanding these labels without ignoring or denying the disability.
ABOUT US

We are Ontario educators with qualifications in Health & Physical Education and Special Education. As educators, we all want our learners to identify with, and value their own learning. Together we have joined forces to focus on our common goal of delivering a platform to network, learn, and share our passion in educating learners of all ages and abilities.
Laura Seckington
From a young age, special needs was “normal” to me as I grew up with a brother who was exceptional. I visited his classrooms and created visuals to support him at home to be successful at school. Twenty years ago, inclusion was not a priority in planning and programming for educators. However I was able to see the benefits and rewards that came from my brother’s friendships with his neurotypical peers. When I became a teacher, there was no doubt I would pursue Special Education, and believe in teaching and advocating for my students with their families in mind.
Andrea Haefele
Movement has always been a huge part of my life. I grew up in a family where I was given many opportunities to explore physical activity in a variety of ways. To be honest, I never understood the complexities of accessibility in physical activity until I had my first born child who was born with special needs. Learning how to navigate the system and advocating for the appropriate resources opened my eyes to the inequality of supports for her varying disabilities. The life lessons with my daughter have always motivated me to foster the learning in Health & Physical Education in shaping my students’ views about life, relationships, healthy development, physical activity, and how they learn.

TESTIMONIALS
Michael Cohen; Superintendent of Education, York Region District School Board

“Of the many champions for kids and adults with additional needs, two in particular stand out to me: Andrea and Laura. Play Beyond The Label is about helping people everywhere realize the power and importance of inclusion. When you believe that everyone can play beyond the label, you will see a change in mindset, and a change in output, both in people delivering the program and those on the receiving end. And only then, will you truly understand how important this work is. True supporters believe EVERYONE can, with the appropriate time and supports in place, be successful, and this is so true when we Play Beyond The Label.”
TESTIMONIALS
Rebecca Richardson; Instructional Program Leader, Halton District School Board

“Andrea from the PBTL team facilitated a secondary teacher workshop for educators working in our Community Pathways Program. This workshop was an integration of opportunities in physical education accompanied by appropriate accommodations and modifications necessary to ensure learning and growth for every student. Each and every activity was selected to ensure that all students could engage, be active and be part of the learning. Teachers engaged in every activity and were enabled to experience the activities as if they were students, providing insight into how modifications and accommodations could be made in advance and on the spot. Andrea’s passion, knowledge and experience excites educators and provides them with the information, skills and strategies they need to deliver a quality program. Her belief that all students deserve a quality health and physical education program is evident and contagious.”
TESTIMONIALS
Kim Tanaka; Session Lecturer, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education

"Andrea's workshop 'Setting the Stage', has been incorporated into in my Special Education course for Teaching Candidates over a number of years. According to my teacher candidates, the hands on and interactive workshop was one of the the highlights of their course. They were able to delve deeper into developing inclusive and meaningful strategies for inclusion in their teaching practices. While they were actively participating in the workshop, they gained a deeper appreciation for the power of purposeful and planned inclusionary activities linking them to their student's strengths. The teacher candidate exit cards from the workshop spoke of how deeply they had been impacted by workshop and how it opened their eyes to the simplicity of developing inclusive design into their programming."

Andrea Carey; OneAbility Co-Founder & Chief INclusion Officer with INclusion INcorporated

“Andrea is a passionate advocate for disability inclusion. She brings her dynamic personality and great knowledge of how to build inclusive activities to life in her presentations to offer attendees a practical opportunity to imbed disability inclusion into their practice.”

TESTIMONIALS
Lauren Tristani; Postdoctoral Fellow, York University

"I had the pleasure of having Andrea as a guest speaking, presenting a Play Beyond The Label presentation in March 2020 to third and fourth year Kinesiology students studying adapted and inclusive physical activity. Andrea was able to bring a unique perspective and connect theory to practice. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and widespread lockdowns, Andrea was able to quickly and seamlessly transition her presentation to an online platform. Andrea was well received by students, easy to work with and took extra time to interact and answer questions. The Play Beyond The Label presentation was an informative learning piece for students as it provided practical tools for planning, developing, and integrating adapted physical activity. Students were called to think critically and challenge notions of (dis)ability."
