Abstract
Many teachers w1ll have special needs children integrated in their
classes. At another time they w1ll teach a brother or sister of a special
needs child. A review of the literature indicates that some brothers and
sisters harbour misconceptions about the nature, extent and
implications of their sibling's disability. Teachers may wish to provide
information and support to these brothers and sisters. One method of
providing this is to develop a sibling support group.
