Relief Of All Of The Special Needs

For this assignment, I interview a service provider for special education services. The service provider I interviewed, takes part in the educational team, and provide services. The service provider is developmental therapist. I was able to develop a better sense of the importance of inclusion. After interviewing the service provider, and learning her philosophy of inclusion I have was able to better understand the accommodations and modifications for special needs students.

I have distinctly applied for Special Needs Education because special education has always been what’s near and dear to me in the field of education. Being a special education teacher would be an inevitably rewarding job, in which I get to watch my students grow, as I celebrate their small breakthroughs and victories with them. These small breakthroughs and victories will improve over time and turn into giant leaps, which will leave a lasting impact and ultimately change the child’s life. Beyond just educating children with special needs, I aspire to educate the public about children with special needs and special education. By doing so, I hope to remove any uncertainty and fear the public has on this group of children. Not only do I want to impart knowledge on these special children, I also want to advocate for them, which is something that goes

3.1 Obtain information about the individual needs, capabilities and interests of disabled children and young people and those with special educational needs with whom they work.

This case study involves a male student with juvenile arthritis who has two younger brothers who also have this condition. This individual wants to be a pilot. The parents are supportive of this student's plans for his future. This study will answer: (1) what is the impact of having a disability and what might be the different perspectives of stakeholders involved in the inclusion of students with special needs? and (2) What can be learned from listening to the voices of those with disabilities? This study will develop a 'mind map' to synthesize and critique some of the issues learned through listening to the voices of those with disabilities. Finally, this study will answer as what resources are available to inform teachers?

San Bernardino City Unified School District houses one of the largest populations for students with moderate to severe disabilities within the Inland Empire. Over the past decade San Bernardino City Unified School District (SBCUSD) has sustained an influx of students who qualify for a moderate to severe special day classroom (SDC) setting and special education services. Effectively educating youth with moderate to severe disabilities is not a simplex task, as it requires multifaceted skillsets involving various special education professionals. Developing and executing a service delivery model that targets student’s individual needs, while simultaneously supporting students in strides towards life long goals is crucial. Carmack Elementary is one of fifty-two elementary schools within SBCUSD that only provides educational services to students with moderate to severe disabilities grades kindergarten through sixth. The community surrounding Carmack Elementary has been deemed high-poverty, indicating a vast majority of students who attend Carmack are presumed as low-income status. Lastly, a vast majority of students who attend Carmack Elementary qualify for the free and reduced meal program offered through the district.

Everyone has their own set of strengths and weaknesses. Those with disabilities are no different they just have a different set then everyone else. I chose this project topic because in 5th and 6th grade I was part of a program called Peer Pals. Once a week during recess I volunteered in a special needs classroom. This work opened my eyes to the world of special needs and Peer Pals is one of the things I miss about elementary school. I realized that I needed to continue helping the special needs community. No solutions presented themselves and then one day the solution stared me in the face from it’s home in the Reston Community Center Program Guide. “Volunteer at the Adapted Aquatics Class,” I had found a solution to my problem.

These are the key points taken from that review. My plan to address these is to utilize the videos listed in the bibliography first. I will include one video a month beginning March 25, 2010. As I review research protocols developed by professors at the local universities which focus on minority or special need populations, I will use that opportunity to glean information from the literature review, study plan and active engagement with the investigator to expand my knowledge beginning February 25, 2010. The ethical considerations associated with vulnerable populations require additional protections to ensure the study participants are not exploited

In ninth grade, my mother suggested that I volunteer with peers at my high school who are special needs. She thought it would be good for me to meet other people my age who have their unique struggles in school, much like myself. I protested originally, but little did I know I would love volunteering with my peers, regardless of their disability. During this time, I signed up to volunteer with a local organization called Buddy Ball. At Buddy Ball, I had the opportunity to teach children with disabilities ages five through twenty-one baseball. When I volunteered with my peers, I mainly saw high schoolers with severe autism, intellectual disabilities, and emotional disturbances, whereas with Buddy Ball most of the participants had severe autism, intellectual disability, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, spina bifida, epilepsy, or a multiple of disabilities. Both of these experiences allowed me to gain knowledge of a variety of special

Things such as parking spaces, wide enough doorways and just natural traveling within the facilities are deterrents to these people for seeking care. Including the lack of height-adjustable examination tables, weight scales accessible for those with mobility or activity limitations, lack of broad doorways for wheelchairs, and sign language interpreters for the deaf (Schwartz,2012). The failure to enter a building is not the main reason individuals can’t be accommodated. Inaccessible equipment is a far more common barrier (Lagu, Lezzoni, & Lindenauer, 2014).

This writer was given an assignment of researching three questions related to learning disability. The three questions are: 1. what is a learning disability? 2. How do individuals with learning disabilities process information? and 3. What challenges are related to how these individuals process information? This writer has learned a lot about learning disability and special education all throughout this course, during this research, and during observation time in the classroom. Special education, a program developed in order to provide a free, appropriate education to all students, even those with special needs, was

“Key to success in collaborating with families of young children with special needs is a commitment to coordinated planning and communication between teachers and early intervention staff that establishing ongoing communication and linking families to community resources”. (Kasczmarek, 2006)

Assessing the needs is the first logical stepping stone of the health promotion planning cycle stones. Assessing children with disabilities in the school setting can be applied with the collaboration with the teachers. The school may recommend further assessment or screening for the child with disability based on the teacher’s recommendations, observation, or by giving the children special tests. In addition, parents are also needed to share the assessment of their child if needed. At the beginning, I am going to define the relevant population demographic and social characteristics, behavior, lifestyles,

The school does not provide any services for students with disabilities and would not give support to parents whose child has a disability. The school is an archiodises school, they do not take students who any disabilities because they will not provide services. Parents with disabilities they do not accommodate there needs.

From the first day a child is born, parents are there to nurture their child, to support them as they grow and develop. There is a lot to learn about raising a child under normal circumstances, but when a child has special needs parents must learn this whole new language of medical and special education terms (Overton, 2005). Parents enter this new world where navigating for the best interest of their child is riddled with challenges and obstacles that they need to somehow overcome. This is especially true when parents are dealing with the special education program in their child’s school.

Children with special needs are slightly different from non-disabled kids, but they’re should not be a barrier between non-disabled children and children with disabilities. Special needs covers a wide range. Some children with physical disabilities use wheelchair, or cane while other children with learning disabilities such as, autism, or emotional disorder. Children with special needs are like all children they want to make friends. Non-disability children want respect, love, good education and job of their dream. Children with special needs can do the same things non-disabled kid do, but it can take them longer. It requires additional explanation or attention. Parents of children with special needs usually feel isolated and uncertain about their child 's future. Schools can help them find support that children are not alone and help is available. Teachers should meet with parents in order to get to know the children better, the specific of their children. Special teachers may come into the class to work one-on-one with the student, for individualized attention. Change begins with an honest examination of understandings, knowledge and belief. Children with special needs should spend more time with non-disabled kids. Children with special needs should study more at public school to learn from
