Having a skilled team is also a benefit to help meet the special needs of the student. A mobility specialist, vision specialist, speech pathologist, deaf education teacher, regular classroom teacher and interpreter make a well-balanced team. Each team player is important in helping the student be successful. Teachers wonder how they will accommodate students with special needs into a regular classroom. Many of us do not have the time to make many accommodations, but what I have found out is that you really don't have to make many accommodations to make special needs successful students.
Inclusion means including all students in the regular education classroom.
I am not saying some accommodations do not have to be made. They do, especially when it comes to testing. What has worked4me is challenging all students, including special needs students, to do the best they can. My special needs students get the same assignments, same projects, and same worksheets as my regular students. Sure, they may need a little extra time, but given the chance they can do it.
