Understanding Inclusive education Describe one example of inclusion in the early years that you have witnessed and one example of exclusion (if you don’t have examples from practice you can draw on your personal experiences). An example of inclusion that I have witness: the teacher learns sign language and creates picture cards to communicate with the deaf child. An example of exclusion that I have witness: an additional staff are employed to support the additional need child only. • Drawing on the lecture and the first reading for this week, what made one inclusive and one exclusionary? What made one inclusive? The present of diversity in the setting, for one to experienced different diversity respect the right of everyone, Embrace…
conventional outlook on inclusion, where each child is accepted for whom he or she is, and is offered the right to an education similar to his/her peers, in a common setting. Others view inclusion as a more complex concept. Griffin and Shelvin (2007) claim that inclusion can be segmented into three phases: segregated provision, integration/ mainstreaming and inclusion. I believe Bailey’s position above, remains in the mainstream/integrated position, as it lacks reference to the humanitarian…
Full Inclusion: Is It Inclusion or Exclusion? Full inclusion is the term used when children with special education needs are put into general education classrooms. While some children with disabilities are able to maintain themselves academically and/or socially in a mainstream environment, many students do not fair so well. Due to their issues, students are unable to progress at the same rate as their peers, and in most cases demonstrate appropriate behavior for a typical classroom. These…
recently conducting research for articles that support inclusion principles for special education students in classrooms I found an article entitled, “Supporting Students With Severe Disabilities in Inclusive Schools: A Descriptive Account From Schools Implementing Inclusive Practices.” Jennifer A. Kurth, Kristin J. Lyon, and Karrie A. Shogren and another titled “Regular primary schoolteachers’ attitudes towards inclusive education: a review of the literature” Anke de Boer . The first article is…
My Personal View of Inclusion: All for inclusion The role of the school counselor is a multifaceted one that includes working with diverse students, teachers, and administrators to build an environment that promotes the development of the child on an academic, personal/social and vocational level. At the core of this profession typically lays the value of ensuring that the best interest of the child is protected in the school community. If that is a primary value for the school counselor, then…
The differing opinions of inclusion exists and always will. As years pass students with disabilities are increasingly being placed in the general education classes. Inclusion not only allows for students with disabilities to receive the same education as their peers, but it also raises awareness for disabilities and allows for diversity. By including students in general education classes, students are faced with students with disabilities and it opens their eyes to how students with disabilities…
I think that all of the children did well in their respective classrooms. In the inclusion classroom the students were listening to the teacher respectfully and didn 't seem to mind the children with special needs in their class. The children in the regular education classroom were very tolerant of the students with special needs in the classroom. Whenever they were acting out, the children were able to ignore their behaviors and continue on with their work. The teacher had mentioned, that she…
1. What do the terms “disability” and “inclusion” mean to you? -Disability is referred to as a physical or mental condition that limits a person 's movements, senses, or activities. Not everyone is born with a disability some are developed through health problems or accidents. There are moderate, mild, to serve cases of disabilities.

The reasons why equity and flexibility are essential components of inclusion is that the combination of the two make an environment rich in learning for those who are needing to use it and it allows for the expansion of utilizing what is that for multiple purposes, not just one. One example of a strategy a preschool teacher can use to ensure that their environments support these key practices is to first look at the physical and mental age of all the children in the classroom, then look…
In today’s school systems there is much controversy over inclusion classrooms and the effects they have on all who are involved. An inclusion classroom is when special needs students are brought into a regular education classroom and the teacher must teach as if all the students are mainstreamed. An inclusion class has a positive impact on academics as well as social aspects for both students with disabilities and students without them. Students with disabilities should be included in the…
