Tonight's #resiliencechat topic: Inclusion in Education

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:04 PM EDT

Thrown in. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:05 PM EDT

As always, I like to start #resiliencechat with a #resiliencechat Tidbit. Here is tonight's...

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:05 PM EDT

Can we start with bus service for Special Ed kids? That alone is enough to make me grumpy. #resiliencechat

Let's get started and I invite people to introduce themselves as they join in #resiliencechat.

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:07 PM EDT

Q1: How do you define "inclusion?" #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:07 PM EDT

A lot of people don't think so. Around here there's a lot of NIMBY attitudes. #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:08 PM EDT

A1 We are all part of the same community. How I define inclusion. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:08 PM EDT

Q1: Or put another way, what is meant by the term "inclusion" in education #resiliencechat

MathJunkie4 Sep 11 @ 10:08 PM EDT

I define inclusion as recognizing the needs of others and adapting to them in order to maximize learning #resiliencechat

vkcommeducate Sep 11 @ 10:08 PM EDT

Hi #resiliencechat! Veronica, Teacher mentor from IL.

A1: Inclusion--being included & participating using one's abilities in day to day activities as a member of the community. #resiliencechat

Watermelonworks Sep 11 @ 10:11 PM EDT

A1:inclusion: people can participate on some level / can use the same tools / can communicate on a topic without judgment #resiliencechat

vkcommeducate Sep 11 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1: All Ss have a voice and choice in their own learning. All staff see themselves as impacting all learners. #resiliencechat

teacherkane Sep 11 @ 10:12 PM EDT

#resiliencechat Inclusion is building a classroom of acceptance and tolerance

In reply to @saratruebridge

msfresconyc Sep 11 @ 10:13 PM EDT

A1 equitable education - all able to access the learning yet we may get them their differently #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:13 PM EDT

I have come to hear people question whether tolerance is enough? Do we need to go beyond just tolerance? #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:14 PM EDT

Q2 coming right up... #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:14 PM EDT

Q2: What has been your experience around the concept of inclusion in education? #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:15 PM EDT

A1.2 It's the cynic in me, but I think "inclusion" really means exclusion. They tell parents about it just to shut us up. #resiliencechat

Watermelonworks Sep 11 @ 10:15 PM EDT

Tolerance means there's still judgement. Acceptance is more leveling the field. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:15 PM EDT

Ouch! Want to say more? I know you've had experience with this. #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

Watermelonworks Sep 11 @ 10:16 PM EDT

@bivey are you coming to #resiliencechat tonight?

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:16 PM EDT

A2 Inclusion is meant for other children. Not mine. Especially in Kid O's case. NIMBY all the way. #resiliencechat

vkcommeducate Sep 11 @ 10:16 PM EDT

Listening without judgement - such a good point. A school culture that promotes taking risks in our learning. #resiliencechat

In reply to @Watermelonworks

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:16 PM EDT

I know it's subtle but I believe it is worth noting the distinction between tolerance and acceptance. #resiliencechat

In reply to @Watermelonworks

msfresconyc Sep 11 @ 10:16 PM EDT

A2 I try to practice this daily i have Ss that are newcomer ELs w gen ed Ss Learning together w same standards #resiliencechat

Bhsteeler Sep 11 @ 10:17 PM EDT

A2: with cognitive challenges too many people default to changes in rigor and volume without true differentiation #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:17 PM EDT

They make excuses more so than coming up with solutions. #resiliencechat

In reply to @saratruebridge

MathJunkie4 Sep 11 @ 10:17 PM EDT

A2: inclusion is taken by some as an exclusion of others. Focusing on it too much that other children's needs go unnoticed #resiliencechat

Watermelonworks Sep 11 @ 10:18 PM EDT

A2: I have 2 reactions to inclusion in Ed. Some places work very hard for all to be accepted and included. Some not so much #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:18 PM EDT

When Kid O was 5, they told me to have low expectations. And then they made that the reality. #resiliencechat

In reply to @saratruebridge

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:18 PM EDT

We must all work towards solutions. #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:19 PM EDT

My husband and I showed them a video of Kid O learning yoga, ie, following directions, and they disregarded the evidence. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:19 PM EDT

Lower expectations: That is a form of soft bigotry #resiliencechat

So sorry that you had to experience that! #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:20 PM EDT

Q3: What does a successful inclusive classroom look like? #resiliencechat

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:20 PM EDT

A1 Inclusion - everyone equally part of the community exactly as they are?? (now to read y'all's answers!) #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:20 PM EDT

Soft. Hard. Bigotry is bigotry. And educators and admins ought to know better. #resiliencechat

In reply to @saratruebridge

MathJunkie4 Sep 11 @ 10:21 PM EDT

Sorry to hear that! How is O doing now? #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:21 PM EDT

Good point. #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:21 PM EDT

Oy. Yes. Tolerance is less than the bare minimum. It doesn't even imply acceptance, never mind embracing difference. #ResilienceChat

In reply to @saratruebridge, @teacherkane

vkcommeducate Sep 11 @ 10:21 PM EDT

A2: Work in progress. Seems to be more divide/conquer where people stick to prof arena as opposed to finding common ground. #resiliencechat

Watermelonworks Sep 11 @ 10:21 PM EDT

A3: everyone feels like an equal player/owner in their education. #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:22 PM EDT

She is doing OK, but she is still not where she ought to be. And turns 22 in April. #resiliencechat

In reply to @MathJunkie4

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:23 PM EDT

A2 My experience has been a mix of people genuinely doing the work, those who want to be seen as inclusive, those who mock. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:23 PM EDT

Q4: What are some of the challenges/obstacles in students feeling included in classrooms? #resiliencechat

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:24 PM EDT

I see those perceptions, too. To what extent do you think they are accurate? #ResilienceChat

In reply to @MathJunkie4

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:24 PM EDT

A3 Everybody together. The way that community is supposed to look. Do away with NIMBY. That hurts the disabled kid, and... #resiliencechat

teacherkane Sep 11 @ 10:25 PM EDT

How do you teach resilience? #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:25 PM EDT

FYI: NIMBY = "Not in my back yard" #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:25 PM EDT

A3 Kids in the classroom don't get exposed to kids like Kid O. And people wonder why this world isn't a better place. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:26 PM EDT

Great question! It's all about first understanding it. ;) #resiliencechat

In reply to @teacherkane

Bhsteeler Sep 11 @ 10:26 PM EDT

A4: ever increasing complexity of needs is challenging reality for classroom teachers #resiliencechat

Watermelonworks Sep 11 @ 10:26 PM EDT

A4: challenges range from social anxiety, shy, behavioral, environmental, physical, maturity, language, learning challenges..#resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:26 PM EDT

This is such a good point. One of my questions later on deals with something about this. #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:27 PM EDT

A4 When some kids disapprove of or even don't believe in certain identities by other kids identify. #resiliencechat

vkcommeducate Sep 11 @ 10:27 PM EDT

A4: When the learning outcomes/resources are not at that just right level. Too easy-too difficult. Impacts feedback too. #resiliencechat

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:28 PM EDT

A4 When privilege doesn't see itself and/or resents any implication privilege exists in the first place. #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:28 PM EDT

And because kids aren't exposed to disabled at a young age, this is what happens: https://t.co/2tdzyBqoZ2 #resiliencechat

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:29 PM EDT

Time had totally gotten away from me! Trying to arrange "Welcome to the Black Parade" for Upper School Rock Band. :-) #ResilienceChat

In reply to @saratruebridge, @Watermelonworks

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:29 PM EDT

Now we have a president who normalizes mocking the disabled. https://t.co/2tdzyBqoZ2 #resiliencechat

Not to peddle my wares but you may find this helpful in response to your question: https://t.co/GtQfvJfAEw #resiliencechat

In reply to @teacherkane

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:30 PM EDT

We have parallel (though not incompatible) definitions of inclusion going here, don't we? #ResilienceChat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:30 PM EDT

Maybe those who mock ought to find another line of work. #resiliencechat

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:23 PM EDT

A2 My experience has been a mix of people genuinely doing the work, those who want to be seen as inclusive, those who mock. #resiliencechat

Watermelonworks Sep 11 @ 10:30 PM EDT

Hi #resiliencechat, the weather here slowed me down getting home! I'll jump in now if that's ok?! #Thunderstorms

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:31 PM EDT

... which is reprehensible. Actually, he pretty much normalizes dehumanization of any non-privileged axis of identity. #ResilienceChat

Sorry #resiliencechat crew. Was out running, and lost track of time! #catchingup

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:31 PM EDT

Here's something to ponder... #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:31 PM EDT

Q5: Is every child in a class w/or w/o a disability considered "included" just because they are there? Why or why not? #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:32 PM EDT

Good to see you, Rob!! Hope you ran a few miles for me too!!! ;) #resiliencechat

In reply to @ResiliencyGuy

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:33 PM EDT

A4 Overcoming communication barriers. Overcoming anxiety issues. #resiliencechat

Yeah. Unless you're a wealthy WASP, you are a nobody. #resiliencechat

In reply to @bivey

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:34 PM EDT

Your point is valid for teachers. But I'm also talking about kids. And probably overstating "mock" for many of them. #ResilienceChat

In reply to @MissShuganah

In reply to @elena_SF_CA

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:36 PM EDT

A5 #resiliencechat Just because a child is in the room does not equal inclusion. Purposeful, thoughtful, approach is warranted.

Watermelonworks Sep 11 @ 10:36 PM EDT

A5: physical/mental disabilities are not the only methods of exclusion. "Social rank", size, accent, etc can influence excl.#resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:36 PM EDT

Then they need to be taken aside and taught. Perhaps exposed to disabled community would help. #resiliencechat

In reply to @bivey

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:36 PM EDT

Agreed. #resiliencechat

In reply to @ResiliencyGuy

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:36 PM EDT

A5 To my thinking, mere presence does not automatically imply true inclusion - there are emotional/mental dimensions. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:36 PM EDT

YES!!! This is a very important point to make! #resiliencechat

In reply to @Watermelonworks

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:37 PM EDT

A5 When they tried to mainstream Kid Q before she was ready, she totally lost it. That was 1st grade. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:37 PM EDT

Q6 on its way... #resiliencechat

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:37 PM EDT

Very true. Also, I came in late, and was thinking a more global definition of "inclusion" focusing on all axes of identity. #ResilienceChat

In reply to @MissShuganah

vkcommeducate Sep 11 @ 10:38 PM EDT

A5: Seek to focus and build upon each child's strengths. Too often, the focus of inclusion, ironically, is on the "cant's." #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:38 PM EDT

My focus is probably a bit too narrow. #resiliencechat

In reply to @bivey

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:39 PM EDT

You are so right! We need to be more "strengths-based" than "deficit-based" #resiliencechat

In reply to @vkcommeducate

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:39 PM EDT

Q6: How can students participate in creating an inclusive classroom for other students? #resiliencechat

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:39 PM EDT

I wouldn't say that. Plus, you have every reason to place your main focus where you do. It matters. #ResilienceChat

In reply to @MissShuganah

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:40 PM EDT

A6 Teach compassion and empathy at a young age. Kids don't know about The Other. They have to learn about that, too. #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:41 PM EDT

Thanks. #resiliencechat

In reply to @bivey

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:41 PM EDT

Agreed! #resiliencechat

In reply to @MissShuganah

bivey Sep 11 @ 10:41 PM EDT

A6 Students see things we miss, and kids are often more focused on creating true justice than many adults. #resiliencechat

elena_SF_CA Sep 11 @ 10:41 PM EDT

A4: Some quiet kids rely on a teacher to call on them, but some teachers trying to be "nice" skip those shy kids. #resiliencechat

Watermelonworks Sep 11 @ 10:41 PM EDT

A6: learn about your classmates. Teach understanding. Teach kindness and respect. #resiliencechat

saratruebridge - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:41 PM EDT

In reply to @bivey

Bhsteeler Sep 11 @ 10:42 PM EDT

Kids have a sixth sense & can be more sensitive than adults. Let them engage with their peers and listen to others' opinions #resiliencechat

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Sep 11 @ 10:46 PM EDT

A6 #resiliencechat Each child has needs & if we normalize the need, and the strategies, each can get what they need - simply needs being met

vkcommeducate Sep 11 @ 10:46 PM EDT

A6: Ss able to tell their stories and listen to the stories of others. Classroom has clear evidence of student ownership. #resiliencechat

Lovin' the responses connecting inclusion and resilience! #resiliencechat

MissShuganah Sep 11 @ 10:49 PM EDT

As always, a BIG thank you to the #resiliencechat PLC for always stepping up & tackling the hard questions. It is always insightful!
