The Down Syndrome Foundation of Orange County has a free and comprehensive set of learning materials that are appropriate for learners with many different developmental or intellectual working on their Learning Program website.
Included are (you must be logged in to go to most links):
Literacy Materials
- instructional materials
- introductory sight word readers and flashcards (which use photo support and large print for low vision)
- emergent readers and flashcards which support the Lakeshore Learning Readers
- abc phonics materials
Math Materials
- Introduction to Numbers (numbers, counting, number lines, concepts)
- Addition
- Subtraction
- Money
- Time
Daily Activity Guides
Significant and Profound Disabilities:
Many of the materials would be great for students with very significant to profound intellectual disabilities who are not necessarily working on literacy or numeracy per se. The introductory sight word readers make fantastic photo based vocabulary concept books for our learners working on earlier cognitive skills, as do the Count to Ten book and Counting Fruit book; textures or objects could be added for students with low vision.
