I remember feeling as though they were missing class time, and that most kids in the class looked at them differently for having to leave. Some of those kids were often made fun of. I remember thinking how upsetting this was, and wanting to do something to change it.]]> 2020-05-19 20:58:46 UTC https://padlet.com/wingeta1/hp6vtdrqylbgvpa5/wish/583515937 wingeta1 https://padlet.com/wingeta1/hp6vtdrqylbgvpa5/wish/583528906 My interest in becoming a teacher became stronger.

Creating a learning space where ALL learners feel included, and where all learners are provided with ways that they can learn.
