Intro to Inclusion Make Up Email from a 2009 CM after attending Inclusion Day of Sped Summit: I just wanted to send a quick thank you for today's multitude of lessons. I was talking to a couple 2010s at the end of the day today and they seemed to really have gained a lot from everything and feel good about the concept of inclusion and the art of co-teaching in general. I also gained quite a few different ideas to put into place this year!
Do Now Recall the purpose of Special Education: • Special education services aim to minimize the impact of students’ disabilities, identify deficits and address them in targeted ways, and maximize students’ access to the general education curriculum. • Special education services also aim to ensure students with disabilities are able to learn in the least restrictive environment and interact with their non-disabled peers to the maximum extent possible. How does inclusion fulfill the purpose of special education?
Inclusion 101 August 10, 2010
Vision for Inclusion Inclusion teachers will deliver rigorous, standards aligned content and instruction on independent learning goals in all inclusion classes regardless of the inclusion situation. Inclusion teachers will also build student empowerment in the inclusion setting. Ideally, CMs will long term plan standards-based instruction and differentiated content in collaboration with their co-teacher and deliver both effectively. If such long term planning is not possible due to challenges in working with a co-teacher, they will deliver effective standards-based instruction by teaching on the fly using toolkits and teach differentiated content during pull out sessions. Inclusion teachers will recognize that having two teachers is better than having one, and that the co-teacher relationship is the key lever over the long and short term in providing increasingly effective instruction for students in inclusion and will purposefully, strategically plan to build a productive, collaborative relationship with each of his/her co-teacher(s).
Objectives Special educators will be able to: • Explain the purpose of inclusion and how it can benefit all students. • Explain how inclusion fulfills the purpose of special education. • Describe the three buckets of inclusion placements and how they can provide meaningful instruction in any of them. • Identify that their relationship with their co-teacher is a key lever in providing increasingly effective instruction in inclusion.
