Answer to Question 1

Integrating children with special needs into the regular classroom began as the inclusion movement during the 1950s, based on studies showing that segregated classes for students with disabilities were ineffective and possibly harmful (Baldwin, 1958). Resource rooms and specially trained teachers replaced the special classes that had been in vogue, a change that had the further advantage of removing the need to label and categorize children.

Answer to Question 2

1 . Review the child's existing abilities. 2 . Develop a short statement of goals at the beginning of each lesson. 3 . Present new concepts and material in small steps, each followed by student practice. 4 . Provide clear and detailed instructions and explanations. 5 . Provide considerable practice for all students. 6 . Check student understanding of concepts continually, in response to teacher questions. 7 . Provide explicit guidance for each student during initial practice. 8 . Provide systematic feedback and corrections. 9 . Provide explicit instruction and practice for exercises completed by students at their desks.
