*My Philosophy*

My Philosophy on Education is that every child should have the opportunity to get a beneficial education and most of all not just "know" what is being taught but "understand" what is being taught. I think this is up to the Educator (ME) in order to getting the child to understand and benefit from education. In order to do this I will have to meet many different needs for many different children. I also believe that there has to be parent involvement for this all the happen as well. With the involvement of the child's parents their education they will be more achieving.
Children with disabilities should take part in the classroom activities. As long as the are capable of participating I feel that they should be included. These type of children no matter what the disability is should not be treated any different from any other student. I do not like how these children are were being "labeled". It is not fair to the child. It gives the other children ways to look down upon them instead of looking up to them. With IDEA it gives the child with a disability the education resourse they need in order recieve a benefical education. As a teacher I will do everything it takes to help children with disabilities of any sort get a beneficial education and give them the chance to participate in all classroom activities. Although, Inclusion is need in many children with disabilities I think that this is also great so that these children are being taught the material in a different way so they are able to comprehend it.
No matter what or how serve the disability of a child, they should have the same oppertunity to learn and receive an education in which ever way the can most benefit from. I do not look at these children any different from others because these children are the people of our future. :)
