DISCUSSION 6A


I chose this first image to represent inquiry; the way people are left when they are alone. To be a successful teacher, you need to be able to not only teach the material and answer questions, but you need to be able to determine whether or not a student understands. The teacher could have taught the students, and then went on to ask them to do an assignment and this student clearly does not understand. 



This second image I chose was to represent inclusion. This picture includes all different people, different colors, different shapes, and different disabilities. This picture represents the idea of full inclusion or mainstreaming movement. Almost ten years ago, it was said that half of all students with disabilities spend almost all of their school day in a normal classroom setting. I can only imagine this statistic going up, now that inclusion is becoming more popular throughout the school systems. 



The last image I chose was to represent students with disabilities and why they need constructive classrooms. There are a lot of things going on in this picture, group work, individual work, computer learning, one on one teacher assistance, and a student teaching the classroom. Students with disabilities need to have more appealing and rewarding ways of learning. Having a disability is a great challenge to begin with when entering a classroom, it is the responsibility of the teacher to engage all students and have the classroom be more appealing.
