What inclusion model looks like as a visual timeline. Where are we at in our inclusive journey, where are we headed and how can we move forward? How can we do better?

Transforming Inclusive Education

Comparing teaching to bowling and how kids are the pins--aim for the pins are the hardest to hit--not the center this will ultimately help all students learn in the classroom

Don’t Should on Me: It’s not easy being NOT green

Understanding standardized education creates consistency based on the condition of factories--education took the same sort of stance---keep things consistent while this is a best practice in a factory setting it might not work well in a school setting BIG picture ideas

I watched the second Shelley Moore video (assuming most people would watch the first one) She addressed the idea of measuring students against where they "should" be or what they "should" be doing... and how damaging that is to set expectations like that for students of any ability.

Students in Special Ed have learning/processing disabilities/differences...not intellectual deficits.

Inclusion practices are often used but not properly supported by the school culture. I find that it is difficulty to support sped students in their gen ed course because they are not properly accommodated or use terms “water-down” the curriculum when we give students more support ( ie accomodations). It is a constant battle telling gen ed teacher that student A belongs here. We shouldn’t have to defend a student for the right to their least restrictive environment.

THIRTY years of research went into creating the inclusion model. I truly had not thought about research propelling this concept.
I like it.

Some SDC Students will thrive in a general education class if we were to imply that the majority of learning needs are met in the classroom with support!

Students who provided peer supports for students with disabilities in general education classrooms demonstrated positive academic outcomes, such as increased academic achievement, assignment completion, and classroom participation. (Cushing & Kennedy, 1997)

I thinks it’s interesting (and amazing!) that the students who are “peer supports” also benefit  from an inclusion setting  ☺️

Thirty years of research shows when all students learn together... and are given appropriate instruction & supports, all students can participate learn and excel...'  'studetns WITHOUT disabilities made significantly greater progress in reading and math when served in inclusive settings."

Forgot to think about how much students without disabilities benefit from the break down of lessons, and supports.

This was a great article. I enjoyed reading statistics and research from other countries, like Brazil. Special Education and/or inclusion is not seen in many parts of the world.

YouTube: five moore minutes

Love her videos. We are so programmed to look at students and where they “should” be. I love her idea of: “where are you now, and what’s the next step?”

when other levels of inclusive practices seem so powerful to all.  Identifying where all students are struggling and giving them the supports to be successful is an incredible goal for and can be in reach with multiple teachers and support in one class.
