This month our students learned more about our Snow School students who have a special education eligibility.\u00a0 We have 5 classrooms at Snow that are self-contained special education classrooms.\u00a0 While students in these classrooms learn differently, we are more alike than we are different.\u00a0 It is up to us as leaders to make sure everyone feels included.\u00a0 Saying or waving hello, offering a compliment, \u00a0helping a student who may have fallen are just a few ways we can connect with students who learn differently.\u00a0 We can also help students learn social behaviors by modeling good behavior.\u00a0 When we witness students making a bad choice we can tell them a better choice they could make.\u00a0 We can also try to understand that if we see challenging behavior, it may be out of that student\u2019s control or part of their disability.\u00a0 Empathy is the ability to put ourselves into someone else\u2019s shoes.\u00a0 Questions you may want to ponder at home to further this discussion: \u00a0How would life change if \u00a0I had a disability?\u00a0 What would I need to help me learn?\u00a0 How would I want others to treat me?\u00a0 Everyone wants to feel included and it is our hope to make sure that we are showing kindness and empathy so that everyone feels included.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
