adaptive PE question

[mg12061]

I would love to hear anyones experience with adaptive PE. up till now (high school) Kathleen has always ahd a APE teacher working with her directly. Now in high school they say "we don't do to that way here". So is it legally ADP if a pe teacher just gives the TA ideas for exercises weight machines etc and she is responsible for working with Kathleen? There are times the reg PE class is too much for Kathleen or it's too hot outside for her so she has to be pulled out. I'm not so sorue I'm comfortable with a TA who is not trained in APE or PT to work on weight machines etc.

Mary Grace,
I'll ask Adrienne your question, and will get back to you. I think she'll know. Emily has never had adaptive PE, but believe it or not...........she continued to have PT/OT at school 3 times a week through her Senior year! It didn't get discontinued until she moved to the school for the blind last year. They did cool activities with her like jumping on a trampoline, areobic exercises to music she liked, etc.
