This blog is a a combination of resources, creations and personal reflections to display my understanding of the theories, regulations and practices that support students identified with special needs and how to assure an effective, collaborative classroom learning environment that is safe, respectful, and engaging.

At first I was unsure as to how to share my journey through this realm of education. Going into this array of topics, I was interested in creating a dance piece to embody my thoughts.  Since this was so important to me at the start it only made sense in the end to create a portable package of information that could serve a greater purpose than just showing that I have jumped into these murky waters.

Please join me on the journey and share your own experiences and opinions on how education reaches or doesn't reach everyone in the classroom--even in the back.
