Hi Yashvi,
Thank you for your week 5 blog post on inclusion and its importance in education. I liked how you structured your blog post this week by beginning with a quick overview of inclusion before providing an extensive list of the importance of inclusion. Further, I found your personal experience of you and your friend very moving and well-articulated why including everyone is critical.
After completing this course, I am curious if there are any ways (based on your personal experience) that you can think of that could be done in your school to create a more inclusive environment for your friend? I too knew people who were excluded from the classroom because of disabilities and felt that not enough was done to make the environment more accommodating and welcoming for them. Furthermore, I very much agree with including all from a very young age at the elementary level; this way students are not “outcasted” from their peers.
Thanks,
Katie
