Ah!!! at last I found what I was looking for. Somtimes it takes so much effort to find even tiny useful piece of information.

Nice post. Thanks

NCLB

I am a special education teacher. I love my profession and believe in my students' ability. Although I believe in them, I still differentiate instruction to meet their learning needs and help them remediate skills.

How can our government expect us to differentiate, to individualize, and to modify our instruction all year but, at state testing time, all students are given the same assessment? It does not make sense.

I agree we need to be accountable to our students and families; however, we need to be required to show growth for that student based upon THEIR needs and level of development. If they were on grade level, they would not necessarily be special education. It is not fair to push them all year. Encourage them to work hard and do their best. Teach them to use their resources and ask for help if they need it; and then when the stakes are high, leave them out on their own.

Education is supposed to help our kids be successful in society. How many of you have bubbled in a worksheet at your professions lately?
