In an early childhood setting, planning needs to be done with all the children in mind. Children with different backgrounds and abilities need to feel welcome and an integral part of the setting.
An art activity needs has to be planned so every child can participate. The same is true for science, literacy, math activities, and so on.
The child with an additional need should not be left excluded in a specific location. ALL children should learn that the world is a place where they are expected to contribute to with the best of their abilities. We should look at our strengths and not focus on our weaknesses, yet acknowledging that we all have both.
Though this is easier said than done, a partnership between parents, teachers, and the community is pivotal to a successful inclusive education.
