I am very much interested in working with special
needs children. So I am always looking for articles or anything that would help
me to help them. So when I was looking up some information I found a website
that would help me to set up an inclusion classroom to fit the different needs
of a child. One thing I want to do is have special needs children with regular
students and to teach them to work together. I work in a special ed. Classroom now
and it is wonderful to see how excited they get when their partners come to
work with them. I want to make sure that the special needs child does not feel
left out. One thing they mention is and
this is something all teachers can use make sure to model appropriate behavior,
make sure there is room for all children to move around, make sure the environment
is set up for all sensory modalities, and that there is a program set up for
social skills. I am really looking forward to teaching an EC classroom for all
children with or without special needs and to help make it affordable for all.

Children with Special Needs: Are You and your Early Childhood
Program Ready?
I think special education is becoming a more relevant topic every day! I am glad you were able to find information where everyone feels included which is very important for those children! I am happy that the research has helped you arrange the classroom so that the children despite their difficulties were still able to learn!
ReplyDeleteHi Mary, What a great idea to help children especially special needs children with your inclusion curriculum this program is very interesting and beneficial for all children to comprehend. I agree that special need children should never feel isolated and be treated as equal. Excellent story.
ReplyDeleteHello Mary.
ReplyDeleteI like the fact that you want to work with children with special needs. It is important that educators have a passion to work with children who have disabilities. I enjoyed your blog. Thanks for sharing.
