Spread the loveA recent study out of Ohio State University found that preschoolers categorized as having special needs or disabilities learned more with at least some time in mainstream classrooms than outside of it. “We found that children with disabilities get a big boost in their language scores over the course of a year when they can interact with other children who have good language skills,” said the study’s co-author and a teaching professor, Laura Justice. To reach these conclusions, 670 preschool children enrolled in 83 different programs were observed and analyzed. Of those numbers, half had a disability. Classrooms […]
I made these charts to help the students review what a solid, liquid, and gas is. I cut out different pictures from a magazine and laminated them. I then put sticky Velcro on the pictures and anchor charts so the students could place the correct picture onto the correct chart. We did this activity whole group first so I could explain the pictures. Then, I let the students do this activity as a center.
Teach about the various states of matter - solids, liquids, and gases, with this complete lesson and fun activity!

Inclusive Education, as defined and described by education experts, is a philosophy. It is not a program, nor does it happen in isolation. It can't happen in one classroom and not the other. The successful inclusion of special needs students requires the shared value system, resources and collaboration of the state/province, school district, home, school and classroom. Because the nature of inclusion requires so many components to it's implementation and success, it is often discussed by breaking it down into its topics and sub-topics. For example, we talk about co-teaching, differentiated learning, home-school communication, and IEPs. It is easy for people who are familiar with inclusion to know how all these pieces fit together to form an inclusive environment. However, for others, it still a mystery...a puzzle. How can a teacher with 30 students differentiate learning? Who is a co-teacher? Why does the entire school need to support inclusion? At the suggestion of my radio show co-host, Terri Mauro, a chart depicting the components of inclusive education might be quite helpful for many of our listeners (and readers of this blogpost) in putting the pieces of the "inclusive puzzle" together. It also helps meet the need of our visual leaners :) Please keep in mind that this chart is an overview, a work in progress and you will likely need to enlarge it for reading!

This week is all about matter! Today we discussed liquid & solids characteristics. We describe the shapes of different solids and classify each of them. We use Popsicles to describe liquids characteristics and also to describe how it can change from liquid to solid. We put them in the freezer for a couple of hours and the students wrote their predictions. At the end of the day they wrote their conclusion and enjoyed their Popsicle! It was a fun day! I also wants to remind you about the bilingual blog hop in 3 days!!! Have a great week! Mynda

Teachers love a great resource! Especially a resource that is free and at their fingertips - literally. That's why I put together a list of 10 outstanding websites that teachers can use in the inclusive classroom (or any classroom, for that matter!). It was difficult to narrow the list down to 10, given all the websites that are available on the internet! However each site listed was chosen for content that I feel is unique or more substantial than what others had to offer. And, finally, these sites are in no particular order. They are all excellent and will provide teachers (and parents) with the resources to provide the best possible education for learners in the inclusive classroom. 1. BCTF - Teaching to Diversity - this website has both American and Canadian content. It offers resources that cover all aspects of the inclusive classroom. The resources vary from articles to checklists to worksheets. It also covers children who are gifted or have a second language. This site stands out in its effort to provide support for parents. There are numerous links to information, advocacy, and support groups! 2. Government of Alberta Special Education Resources - here is a website that offers very thorough and comprehensive information on ways in which teachers can support different types of behavior and/or medical conditions in the classroom. It also has a digital resource that provides strategies to support students in social situations while in school. Other online documents include information about transitions, individual education plans and ways to include indigenous populations in the classroom. 5. Do 2 Learn - you can spend hours looking at this site! It provides thousands of pages of social skills, songs, behavior support, cue cards, academic material and transition guides for employment and life skills. It is easy to navigate and free. Resources are designed by educational and clinical experts that are evidence-based and proven to work! 6. Inclusive Schools Network - not only is this site useful for educators and parents, but for schools as well! It has a unique self-assesment tool that allows schools to identify the success of their inclusive practice. In addition, the organization sponsors a national Inclusive Schools Week in December and provides ideas and materials (Celebration Kit) for schools to use. 7. National Center for Learning Disabilities - This site has become a leading resource for parents, students and teachers wanting to know more about learning disabilities. It features articles, assessments, podcasts and more that provide up to date information about learning and related disabilities with best practices for support. 8. CAST (Center for Applied Special Technology) - this website is home to information and tools to implement Universal Design for Learning in the classroom. In particular, the Learning Tools section has an interactive feature that allows users to create their own books and lessons that meet the needs of various types of learners. An extremely helpful resource for differentiating your instruction. 9. The Organized Special Education Teacher - there are not many websites that I have seen that are this organized! An American-based site, it is home to a plethora of resources for teachers. In addition to an excellent section on accommodations and modifications, it also has links to American Special Education laws and the Department of Special Education. 10. EdTech Associates - where can you find the latest and greatest information on assistive technology? On the EdTech Associates website there are links to education web tools, research and digital text books. Also, you can sign up for a newsletter that announces the "Best of the Web" where teachers can get information on how to provide their students with applications that can enhance learning and "level the playing field". Do you have any to add to this list?

Cuando los escolares se ubican espacial, temporal y geográficamente reflejan seguridad y confianza en ellos y ellas. No es una cuestión de caminar por caminar es una cuestión de orientar adecuadamente su cuerpo, mente e identidad ante cada paso que dan día a día. Refuerzas su seguridad cuando impulsas su autonomía mediante cada salida de casa para mostrarles por donde caminan, como se llama la calle, la colonia o ciudad, que tan lejos o cerca están de casa, de sus amigos etcétera. Referentes que al aprovechados para reforzar sus capacidades espaciales, temporales y geográficas aportas a su vida autonomía, confianza y seguridad. Al abrir el caudal de información en tu hijo o hija en términos geográficos despiertas nuevas búsquedas como donde viven sus amigos, familiares que es una calle, una colonia, ciudad, país, un mapa van mas allá de zona geográfica. Al salir de casa sea virtual o presencialmente nuevos esquemas de pensamiento se gestan para orientarse, ubicarse y desplazase. Tener en casa un globo terráqueo aterrizara a tu hijo (a) en un planeta llamado tierra con conocimiento de causa.
