Each slide in this deck shows an image of an everyday object, space, or feature and asks one question: What do you know or notice about this?

Some of these things you have seen or used hundreds of times. Some may be new. All of them have a connection to disability, access, and design that is worth exploring.

Quick read-alouds featuring authentic disability representation open the door to meaningful, everyday inclusion.

Infuse disability representation regularly throughout the year easily using our calendar filled with disability-related concepts. Pick a month or theme on the calendar page and you’ll find opportunities that last all month as well as those that are date specific. Bring them up in school wide morning announcements, newsletters, and individual classrooms.

This slideshow contains a series of images which students are instructed to use words to describe them. This can be used as a stand alone activity to provide a very simple introduction to writing image descriptions, or could be added on to a full lesson about accessibility.

This slideshow contains a series of quotes from various disability rights figures. This could be a stand-alone quick activity or added on to a lesson about disability rights, history or accessibility.

This slideshow contains a series of images of accessibility symbols. Students are instructed to consider if they have:

• Seen the symbol before

• What they think it means

• Why is it important

• If it represents its meaning well

This could be a stand-alone quick activity or added on to a lesson about accessibility.
