Self-Advocacy

What is a strength?

• Something everyone is good at

• Something you are good at

• Something you need to work on

• Being able to lift a lot of weight

What is a limitation?

• Something you may need to work on or is challenging for you

• Something that is hard for everyone

• The top of something

• Something you cannot go over

Limitation means the same thing as...

• Strength

• Struggle/challenge

• Top

• Easy

Assistance is the same as...

• Asking

• Independence

• Help

• Goals

Asking for assistance is necessary at...

• Work

• School

• In the community

• All of the above

Everyone has the same strengths and limitations.

• True

• False

One way to share your strengths with others is to...

• Keep them to yourself

• Only participate in your strengths by yourself

• Ask a friend or family member to participate in one of your strengths

• There is no way to share your strengths with others

One way to improve your limitations is to...

• Never spend time working on them

• Ask someone else to do the things that are hard for you

• Just accept they are limitations and something you cannot improve

• Spend some time each day working on it and asking for help when needed

In your own words tell me what you think the word disability means.

What does ADA stand for? If you do not know- that is OKAY!! Take your best guess:)
