TETN 20440 - 19 of 19. Summary of the 11 Instructional Strategies for children under the developmental age of 3. Additional resources shared. In this training Kate Hurst focuses on strategies for learning and instruction when the child or student with visual impairment or deafblindness is under the developmental age of 3 years. Assessment and programming that is effective for students who are primarily in the sensory-motor stage of development may seem hard to come by, but there are many tried and true approaches to use for individuals at this stage, no matter their chronological age. A discussion of specific strategies suggested by Dr. van Dijk, Lilli Nielsen, and Barbara Miles, as well as resources are shared.
