The nature of the special conditions will affect play.
Their play may not look like the play of children who are typically developing.
RATIONALE: Three major differences between the play of children who have disabilities and
those who are typically developing are that children with disabilities may not
engage in play on their own, the nature of the special conditions will affect play,
and their play may not look like the play of typically developing peers.

Answer to Question 2

A planning team includes parents, representatives from the receiving school district or
school, and current service providers. This team has worked with the child or will work
with the child. They need to discuss several issues, including the type of programs to
consider on the basis of the child's individual needs and whether the child should
receive services in special day class, a typical preschool or kindergarten, or an early
intervention clinic. They should also determine when and how the transition will take
place. They may even identify other families with similar children who can share their
experiences.
