Abstract: Some students with Down Syndrome may be educated in a regular education classroom with their non-disabled peers. Others may be educated in a resource room setting. Parents can work with schools to encourage them to have an Open House for the siblings of the students with Down Syndrome. Students can visit classrooms of their siblings, see their work displayed, meet some of their Down Syndrome friends, look at the materials they utilize throughout their school day or even sit at their desk.
