Learning from your peers - 0 views

“This is a good way to get special-education students integrated with nondisabled peers,” said Marvin Williams, special-education administrator for the district. “Head Start children are good role models for our children with disabilities.” The setting works, Williams said, because the more peer modeling children have, the quicker they learn. It’s better to have their peers show them how to behave than have teachers tell them, he added.

A League of His Own: The Story of Kelly Camel - Montana Kaimin - Features - 0 views
-
Kelly Camel comes to a halt, and the halls of the Adams Center fall silent. Stretching his arm toward a poster on the wall, he points at a member of the 1996 men's basketball team. "J.R.," he says, in his rudimentary speech. It's the legendary J.R. Camel, whose athleticism and leaping abilities as a Grizzly were without parallel. His uncle. Kelly can't be like J.R. He can't run. He can't jump. He can't make a shot or pass to a teammate. But he spends every men's basketball game tucked at the end of the bench. He cheers for the team. He yells at referees. He mimics the gestures of head coach Wayne Tinkle. "He is like a little Energizer Bunny for us," junior forward Derek Selvig said. And although the basketball season is finished, the team's proudest fan is just getting started. Soon, Montana's biggest and most beloved supporter, known to all by his first name, will make fandom his business, opening his own company called Kelly Gear. Kelly was born on Jan. 3, 1978, 3 1/2 months early. He weighed 1 pound, 6 ounces. His chances of survival were one in 100.
