Independent writing is one of the greatest challenges for students with intellectual disabilities and is often associated with frustration and fear of failure. With the materials in this volume, you can help alleviate these students' fear of writing and motivate them to continue practicing. Setting up a meeting via text message, writing a birthday invitation, or sending a postcard from vacation—these topics are deliberately chosen to be age-appropriate, so that young people feel addressed. Short and very simple texts, as well as images from the daily lives of the young people Kemal and Lara, serve as writing prompts and also as writing models. The special bonus: On the accompanying CD, you will find all worksheets in Word format, allowing you to customize them individually.
