I like this idea of following one student’s progress. It is interesting to see how Helen was willing to keep trying whatever she was asked to do and I think that was partly because the instructor checked with her often to make sure she not only understood what she was being asked to do, but to make sure she felt safe. I’m sure Helen will continue to do great!
Michelle, How would you break this down as to DE, CE, CR?
Michelle, Same question. Interested in how this would break down CEU wise. Thank you!
Michelle is currently looking over the CEU guidelines to give a suggested breakdown. I will let everyone know what she says!
Suggested hour ‘topics’ would be disability education and teaching theory (this information has also been updated on the main page of the KICK & PULL series)
I enjoyed watching this lesson. I’m taking some of these tips to one of my riders today!
