Unified Young Readers Club
The Unified Young Readers Club is a great inclusive activity for a younger audience and accompanies Special Olympics Young Athletes play with books and study guides that support teachers as they address such topics as inclusion, awareness, friendship, bullying, and acceptance to audiences of both students with and without intellectual disabilities.
Each book has a theme that relates to multiple state academic standards and aligns with the precepts of positive school climate initiatives.
