There are many approaches to different educational models and methods of organizing activities for children with disabilities in preschools. This article analyzes the basic principles of Universal education for learning (UDL) used in inclusive education for children with disabilities in preschool. These principles include: (1) Multiple means of representation; (2) Multiple means of action and expression; (3) Multiple means of engagement. Based on the analysis of each structural principle: Concepts, meanings, and instructions for applying UDL principles in inclusive education, teachers will know how to design and organize educational activities for children with disabilities. Kindergarten-level disability is suitable for the diverse characteristics of children and meets the requirements of local practice.
