Article: 356 and 259 of Commonwealth Law No. 3203, “the right of every child to live in an environment
conducive to his physical, moral and intellectual development”. And the concurrent duty of government
“to promote the full growth of the faculties of every child.”

Each child is unique, and every child can learn. Look beyond a child’s disability or label, and get to know
her as a person. Observe children to discover what interests each one and to get ideas about what might
motivate her. Talking and playing with children provides important opportunities for building trusting
relationships. Set learning goals, choose strategies, and assess children’s progress. And just as you do for
all children, have high but realistic expectations for children with disabilities or developmental delays.
