Event Details
Inclusion in early childhood programs (including preschool and 4k) refers to educating children with disabilities, from those with the mildest of needs to those with the most significant disabilities, with their peers without disabilities. By educating all students together, teachers and related service providers are able to hold all students to high expectations and intentionally promote participation in all learning and social activities, facilitated by individualized accommodations. By using evidence-based practices and supports in general education classrooms, special educators can partner with general education teachers to foster development (cognitive, language, communication, physical, behavioral, and social-emotional), friendships with peers, and a sense of belonging.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify what inclusive services are in EC settings.
- Learn why inclusive services are important for students.
- Identify how IEP teams can make these shifts for students.
