Students Should Be Taught In Schools

Inclusion is the act of having students with disabilities and abled body students in the same classroom. In concept this has many benefits not only for the students but it also saves time and money for the school, however in practice I do not think inclusion works the way it was hoped to. Inclusion in theory will put light strain on the classroom because of safe guards such as helper teachers are in place to help out. In my experience these teachers are in the way most of the time when students are trying to learn, and students feel cheated when the special needs students are handed a supplemented test making the students feel bad. Lastly that the pros of inclusion in the classroom are set in perfect conditions with good teachers on both sides special education and general education, however most of the time that is not the case.

As educators, we spend a great amount of time looking for different ways to implementing curriculum, meeting school and district deadlines, assessing, planning, and grading. But do we ever take time to really get to know our students and their families in a personal level? Without event knowing, we hold different biases towards students and their parents; we expect them to have certain knowledge about their community and culture depending on their demographics and socioeconomic status. We completely ignore the fact that many parents can make positive contributions to our classrooms. In the book Funds of Knowledge edited by Norma Gonzalez, Luis C. Moll, and Cathy Amanti, we can see how many families have abundant knowledge that the schools/teachers do not know about and therefore do not use in order to teach academic skills.

The education system today is more aware of students who face a diversity of disabilities than ever before. In a classroom, students with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder are especially triggered to experience the disability due to the many physical or emotional stimuli. This disorder involuntarily inhibits a student’s control over most of his or her behavior, so this does not allow a student to experience the same quality of learning as his or her peers. In the article “Arranging the Classroom with an Eye (and Ear) to Students with ADHD”, Eric Carbone reports on avoiding predecessors that worsen the student’s disorder. Through a study on antecedent interventions, Eric Carbone found strategies to help teachers readily instruct students suffering from ADHD.

With every new school, there seems to be the “perfect” correlating curriculum. With every school, there seems to be some kind of underlying issue. Whether it is tuition, teachers, curriculum, or even the school itself, The Knewest of the New will be the best school in history. Community will be a basic necessity as well as passionate teachers. The Knewest of the New strives to instill creativity, passion, and determination into the young minds of the future.

Students in today's classroom are not focused in class as they should be. Some reasons involve technology, but a big factor is what they are learning is simply boring. If the school system focused more on subjects teens could relate to, school participation would greatly increase.

On December 4, 2015 we observed the class for which we developed this response plan. Our main objective was to observe the setup of the classroom as well as the different instructional tools the teacher used to enhance her teaching. In addition, we wanted to see what strategies the teacher implemented to help the ELL and autistic students and see if they were similar to what had in our plan. Upon arriving, we observed that the teacher, Ms. Schmitt, had a large classroom with enough space for groups of students to work together. At the front of the classroom, was the teacher’s desk with a smart board behind it. Several other white boards filled the rest of the wall space. The board on the left was used mostly for instructional purposes while the two on the right were filled with vocabulary and important announcements such as upcoming tests dates. The extra space allowed the teacher to interact with all the students individually. Also, we noted that the teacher had placed the ELL students near the front of the room where she could easily help them or ask them to help each other. The students on the Autism spectrum where located near the back of the classroom where they had more room to work with their aids. However, none of these students were completely isolated from the teacher or rest of the class. Rather all of the students were able to easily interact with one another.

This article conducted its research and study for four years in order to gain a better insight on the response to intervention environment for students with learning disabilities and those placed in special education. The main tier of response to intervention (RtI) that was observed was Tier 2, which is not as individualized as Tier 3, but less populous than Tier 1. It consists of small groups of about two to three students and meets four times a week for around thirty minutes. The main concern of the study is to test identification rates. The students that participated in this study were separated into two groups. The first group that was studied consisted of 381 students in the second grade and had learning disabilities and student characteristics.

I believe that each child is unique in their own way. Children grow and develop at their own pace, and come from families with different values and beliefs. It is our job as ECE’s to understand and respect that all children are different. I believe that children should be taught as we would want to be taught. As Barbara Coloroso believes, that students should not be treated in ways that teachers would not want to be treated because children have as much dignity as adults. For an example, when you are working with infants you should talk to infants as you would talk to any other person, instead of using “baby talk” or babbling back to them. As infants learn fast and understand more then you think. I believe that children deserve to be treated

The magnificent sun shining through the classroom windows as kids, with smiles on their faces, run with joy to their friends and start talking and playing their hearts out with each other. You can almost hear the beating of their heart going BOOM... BOOM...BOOM, as if they had been freed from their little shell to the outside world. The kids are playing games, racing each other in the never-ending green colored grass field, and enjoying the best gift of the world that has been given to them. I think that students should have breaks during the day to go outside to be more productive because it strengthens students brain mentally, help kids with an overweight issue and anyone, in general, to stay in shape, and it's a great way to utilize time

Berry, the most challenging areas of special education are the times where you have to deal with so many kinds of disability each and every day. And the worst of the worse is facing the moments of lack of support. Sometimes if the school is facing financial deficits it goes on backs of the district teachers. The teachers’ salary cuts down and there is nothing they can do about it. I think that the most challenging area is the lack of support, which Mrs. Berry mentioned to me first. Teachers should have more attention and care from the government and school districts. It’s a very hard moment to think and see how unsupported you are when helping hundreds of students get educated to change the world later after you allow them to graduate and let them move on. Also, the teacher will be dealing with so many stressful students who just can’t get the idea that is trying to be understood by them. Or somethings the students just don’t want to learn and it’s the teachers’ job to make them learn no matter what are the reasons after all. I think that this is a very challenging situation when having to come up with a way that you can attract students in your learning. And not any students but special students where everything is harder than normal. We should not forget the behavior disability students, because when dealing with these students the job doubles. The first job is to control their behavior, and the second is to teach them what they are supposed to

Of all the issues in our country, why did I choose to fight for the right education? Is it because many students need it? Of course it is! First of all what is the right education? The right education is more focused on studying than on different tasks which might hinder the students from learning more things. Many students in our country need the right education. It seems as though the youth is receiving it properly. Many people didn't notice and some didn't even bother to think if the youth is receiving the right education. Yes, the teachers are teaching them different courses but they are more focused in performance tasks. Do you think it is the right thing?

The students may have trouble concentrating in school because of many distractions can impact their attention for a long period time. After making a few changes, however students can be less distracted and more productive. The students must learn to disconnect themselves from technology, although it is tempting to answer phone calls or text. Also, they should schedule their classes, while in the classroom. Since some students have trouble waking up early, for example, an 8:00 class may not be the best time. Students should also try to highlight and take notes daily, to keep them more focused and aware of course content. Students need to determine their strengths and weaknesses to be successful and so they can plan around them.

Over the past 10 years, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of students who have been diagnosed with learning disabilities. I need to be aware of how to help those students who have learning disabilities and teach to the best of my ability. I also need to be supportive and understand not every student learns in the same way which is why it is important for me to be flexible in my own style of instruction. I need to be knowledgeable and patient, caring and kind, as I work with all of my students, regardless of ability. Some students are aware of other students who have special accommodations or extra time on tests. One way I will make it easier for students to understand why

Over the years, high schools have evolved in their thinking of what type(s) of curriculum students may require in order to pursue their future career goals. In the past, the general consensus was to include both academic courses along with vocational classes (i.e. wood shop, home economics, typing). Then, for a time, public education chose to divide student populations into two groups: college-bound and career bound. Those students who were not academically inclined per se, were relegated to the vocational “track” and were assumed not to be a good candidate for college. More

The key to any successful school district is the administration. Teachers essentially provide structure, organization, and the background of a child’s future. To educate students with learning disabilities, it is essential that the staff has the training and resources needed for the appropriate people, place, and time (Lazarus) (What is Inclusion, 2001, n.p). It is unrealistic to expect that regular education teachers will always be aware of the latest research or be able to readily adapt the school's
