BCWBS is pleased to announce the launch of the Let’s Play Program official website and teacher’s resource.
LETSPLAYBC.CA will act as a central hub providing basic tools, services, and information on providing inclusive activity programs for kids with physical disabilities and mobility limitations and their peers. LETSPLAYBC.CA is designed to help parents, teachers and program coordinators by providing resource information such as skill descriptions with video footage to support the development of “KSAs”, ideas on how to modify and adapt activities to be more inclusive, and examples of inclusive games and activities. The Let’s Play teacher’s resource also highlights this key information in a hands-on user friendly format that can be used in the classroom or gym.
The Let's Play Program is the result of a cooperative effort between BC Wheelchair Basketball Society (BCWBS), the Rick Hansen Foundation and the Province of British Columbia. It is intended to help kids with mobility limitations, 8 years of age and younger, to become physically active early in life by helping to establish the fundamental skills, knowledge and abilities needed to confidently participate in play, sport and physical education with their peers.
For more information on the Let's Play Program please check out the new website or conact BCWBS at 604-333-3530.
