My kids are in a special education classroom the majority of the day. Their needs range from mild to moderate cognitive delays. Due to the fact that they have disabilities and they are being raised in an urban setting, they do not get much time to appreciate the natural setting outdoors. My students do not go on camping trips nor do they visit parks very often. They don't have a lot of impact on the school environment, either. In this classroom, students learn how to take care of each other as well as themselves. They are taught that taking care of people can come in many forms: cleaning up for someone else, reading a book to someone, following a teachers' directions, holding hands, reminding someone to speak in a kind manner, being polite, or being nice to someone you don't necessarily like, etc. Overall, my classroom is full of kind, respectful students who are happy to learn new things.
