The Navy Seals are the most elite and feared people in the military. From Sea, Air, and Land, is what the Navy Seal stands for they train for them all and can fight anywhere in any condition. In 1962, the Navy seals were made by JFK. If you are really looking to be a seal you will have to go through tons of difficult training that will push you to your limits. The training is split into three incredibly hard phases that you have to go through if you plan to be a seal, and these phases are not going to be easy to get through. The first phase is eight weeks long, but if you are injured during training, you will be sent all the way back to the beginning and have to do it all over again. It has a two and three-mile timed run, physical training, one to two-mile ocean swims, and an obstacle course that is meant to hurt and make you super tired. This is an everyday thing for the Seals after you start your training. Most Seal missions are in secret and that is why we do not hear about them.

It is in the 3rd week of First. Hell Week consists of…

The practice issue I will be exploring in relation to Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) is the active participation of children in their own learning, with an emphasis on the importance of appropriate differentiation. I have chosen to investigate this fundamental issue as it strikes me that I have seen little evidence of children with SEND being encouraged to actively participate in their learning. Firstly, I will attempt to define inclusion and what it means to be engaging in…
