This week we had a guest speaker, Ramona Carrier, speak to my ARTED 308 class about working with students with special needs, as well as learning how to use a SMARTboard and how to implement them into the classroom. Overall, I found this experience to be very beneficial, especially in regards to the vast degree of disabilities that I may encounter through my educational career.
One of the concerns I have had as a future educator is how to work with and include students with disabilities into the classroom, especially because the diversity of disabilities is so vast and broad. The most essential factor that I found to be beneficial in how to learn how to include students with disabilities into the class is to simply ask about them; talk with your students, talk with the paraprofessionals, talk with the guidance counselors. It is ALWAYS okay to ask questions!
