Interesting piece on the value of encouraging and supporting curiosity in students. One more thing for us to think about especially in our instruction of children with disabilities.
Site where you can view art created by artists with disabilities. Mieszko, e.g., is a painter with Down syndrome and a graduate of the Scholars with Diverse Abilities Program at Appalachian State University. Great stuff.
Change How You See, See How You Change. A collection of photos by Rick Guidotti capturing the beauty in genetic diversity. Remarkable photos of kids with Marfan syndrome, albinism, Goldenhar syndrome, Nevus, Down syndrome... All showing not just genetic diversity but personality, joy, and life.
Leanne Gosey, a masters student in reading, reflects on writing instruction, technology integration, and teaching. Thoughtful stuff. Recommended to other students, beginning teachers, and teacher educators.
