Why this book? While a great deal of information is available regarding teaching and coaching physical education for general student populations, little information is available that examines students who use wheelchairs as a method of mobility or to participate in physical activity. Especially important is the value of opportunities for all young people to learn how to use their bodies and maximize physical development. We all know that there is more to running than "just run faster." There is more to going faster in a wheelchair than "just push faster/harder." Because schools struggle to find ways to effectively be inclusive for students with disabilities, and Physical Education teachers generally have little to no training in working with students or student-athletes with disabilities in developing these healthy life and movements habits, this book is an attempt to address developing speed and agility for a wheelchair user and helping them learn their growing bodies to maximize functional capacity.
