computerdisc-l: special education

[Shannon Lott <sjlott@yahoo.com>]

I need some help from some of you experienced
teachers. This was not a problem when I taught a class
that didn't offer a high school unit but now I have a
BIG problem. How do you deal with your special ed
inclusion kids? A few of the ones I have cannot type
with the keyboards uncovered so I know they won't be
able to type when I get my covers. I also know that
they will not be able to work all of the lessons in
the Horizons book. My special ed teachers say that
with the accommodations I need to make they will all
pass. Is this fair? Are they learning anything if I
GIVE it to them. They are all on a diploma track and
so they will expect a high school credit. I need
suggestions please. I have a conference with the
special education coordinator soon to work this out.

Thanks,
Shannon Lott
