Regular education gets textbooks and manipulatives. special Educatio n gets a download that takes 14 hours to print and modify each month to make it useable.

It is so true and, all too often, overlooked. That is not to say something new shouldn't be implemented, but it should be known that it isn't as simply as dropping a device in someone's lap. Just because you plant a seed, doesn't mean it's gonna grow. Water it, give it sunlight, and have some patience...<br /><br />I'd add this one last thing.. Have the conversation about consideration at the same time you are talking about accommodations. The question you ask at that time are the same: "what does this student to have access to a free and appropriate public education?" <br /><br />Great post, thanks for sharing!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09740764165018739005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3672456539433673010.post-58734295568344320212012-04-30T15:25:11.675-04:002012-04-30T15:25:11.675-04:00I loved this post!

Part of training, although our school trains on "harrassment" and student harrassment every other year by law, it's an overview and does not reall address what is considered bullying among adults working in schools. Harrassment training for adults usually addresses sexual harrassment, not other harrassment beahviors that are "bullying". I think if school staff can not recognize their own bullying behaviors, no wonder it is not really addressed when students may try to tell an adult that it is occuring to them. Adults bully in the schools, and I think students follow suit. This is an area that needs to be addressed as well to prevent bullying.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3672456539433673010.post-12675494321826456042012-04-21T10:18:45.598-04:002012-04-21T10:18:45.598-04:00Thanks for sharing your experiences, Jeanette.

I've taught and worked with students with learning differences for 20+ years, and have gained so much reward knowing these people who have to work so hard doing what most of us find relatively easy. Technology is bridging that gap. We have programs in our schools that assist students with reading, writing and understanding text, and it is so rewarding to see a kid's eyes and mouth open in surprise as a whole new world is opened up to them. Reading is about communication...not about letter sounds...and there are so many ways to communicate with the use of technology. So, keep working on developing ways for students to learn about their world through technology. You've been there and your view point is so needed to be heard by these wonderful young people who believe the rules for success are stacked against them.
