The second of seven modules on early intervention for young (birth to age 3) handicapped children provides information on training teachers and other professionals working with children who have motor, hearing, or visual disabilities. An outline of two inservice training sessions, "Explore--There's Environment Everywhere!" and "Is This My Body?" includes objectives and preparation ideas for each lesson. Sessions cover the importance of sensory and body image experiences and of appropriate learning environments. Descriptions of 12 primary references on the topic include information on author, title, publisher, audience, format, date, and cost, along with suggestions for use in the training program. An annotated bibliography lists information on approximately 50 references related to children with motor, hearing, or visual problems. (CL)
