I can be interdependent! “WE ALL NEED SUPPORT.” “WE ALL NEED EACH OTHER.” Being interdependent means: • I will work hard to reach my goals. • I can ask for help when I need it. • I can rely on others to see me through tough times.
To learn to become interdependent, I will follow TOTAL Therapy.
hink about my wants and needs • I know my strengths and my limitations. • I can make and express my own choices. • I can make my own decisions. • To make difficult decisions, I can ask for help from my friends, family or other adults.
wn my IEP goals • I have an Individualized Education Program (IEP). It contains: • how I am doing in school • my goals for the year & for transitioning to adult life • I can: • help set my IEP goals by expressing what I think is important to me • help plan the assistance I need to reach these goals • participate in my own IEP meeting
reatment plan with my PT “Practice, Practice, practice!” • In order to reach my goals, I need to work with my PT to figure out: • What exercises and activities do I need? • What equipment do I need? (wheelchair, crutches, leg brace, special seating, etc.) • What accommodations do I need? (more time to get from one classroom to another, stand in front of line, etc.) • What assistance do I need? (supervision, physical assistance, etc.)
dvocate for myself “Everybody needs help sometimes.” • When I am unable to do something by myself, I can ask others for help. • I know my rights. • I can identify my needs and ask for accommodations to succeed at work, in school and in the community. • I can communicate how I can be assisted.
earn from my actions “Every time I try to do something, I can learn something new!” • I can monitor my own actions. • I can tell whether something is working or not. • If something is not working, I can change my approach or try something else that might work. • If something is working, I remember how I did it correctly. • I can control my behavior and emotions in different situations.
I am… …Self-directed, …Self-determined & …Self-motivated! And I can succeed with the help of others!
