Special Education/ Differentiated Learners

Special Education today in America is a touchy subject. As a Special Education major, I  believe special education is of high importance in the classroom and its curriculum. I have had some experience observing special education students. However, not in a music education setting. As educators it is our job to help differentiated learners meet their full potential. I believe everyone can learn, but it takes a truly dedicated, loving teacher to help that child figure out the best way for them to learn. It may seem like we only devote our time and patience to those children, but we are actually giving them so much more!

  1. Good! What kind of opportunities can we provide for our students with special needs? Do you believe in inclusion or providing students with the opportunity to learn in their LRE? How does inclusion provide social/interaction opportunities for the special needs students as well as the general classroom student? How are we equipping these students with tools to become productive members of society? Think on these questions....if you wish to blog further on the subject, feel free to do so--especially since you are a SPED major!
