Inclusive Classrooms

As we continue our readings and find out new information each day about the students in our classroom I feel as if we are becoming more familiar with inclusive classrooms.  Schools all around the country are trying to focus on mainstreaming all children, which provides the best learning enviroment for them.  Mainstreaming all children sounds like a good idea, but if the classroom is not inclusive then it may be diffidcult to benifit the child.  An inclusive classroom should involve the whole child which invovles their wants and needs.  The classroom should be made physically appropriate for the child with the disability so that they feel comfortable in their own learning enviroment.  An inclusive classroom should also be stimulating to each child's cognitive development enhancing their learning throughout the whole classroom.  Each student in the classroom should be able to participate in every lesson plan or activity that is presented to the whole class.  This provides every child with the ability to learn to their fullest poteintial.
