I felt that the supports shown in Sean's classroom were depicted as outrageously extensive. I think so. It did seem like a bit of overkill to me, though. Sean would have learned to walk to the lunchroom, for example, much more quickly if the adults had stepped back and let the kids take over. They would have gotten Sean there, or they would have given up, and Sean would have missed lunch for the day.
Kids are great problem solvers.
And teachers and aides who know how to hold back and let natural supports fall into place are geniuses. Working out strategies with the other kids is always a good option for the special ed. Modifying materials, however, is a critical task for the special ed. Never any controversy even close to the scale seen on Turning Point. I live in a college town of about 100,000.
