A SuperBrady Author Assembly consists of SuperBrady arriving in his signature “B” shirt and red cape. Brady reads his book displayed as a presentation on a smart board. Then along with a sidekick (sibling or mom), they educate the students about inclusion and share SuperBrady’s tips on how anyone can become a Superhero of Inclusion. SuperBrady then opens it up to student questions.
This is a great experience for children to meet an accomplished author with Down syndrome who can share his achievements and from first-hand experience explain to the students the importance of making everyone feel included.
Professional development Zoom presentations for teachers about inclusion in the classroom, conducted by Brady and his mom, are also available.
