Then explain why you chose the resource.

4. Include citations for all the sources referenced in your blog posting including the text assign be it video, podcast, article, or blog post.

Task #1
Inclusion is a restructuring of the educational program to get the best results for a wide variety of learners and their extremely complex learning styles.  Many of these include programs that support the students family and community.  It is meant to benefit all types of students from the learning disabled to the minority and low income.

Task #2
Some of the students that inclusion serves is homeless or low income, students with learning or other disabilities and those students who speak other languages. 

Inclusive schools provide a sense of community where every child is respected as an important part of the school and the community.  
Inclusive schools have problem solving teams instead of expecting one person to shoulder the responsibilities of solving a problem.
One way to get children involved and responsible in the inclusion process is by the use of cross age tutoring, or using older students to help younger students learn.

This photo is from an inclusive schools art contest.  I chose it because I felt that it shows that inclusive schools aren't just about severely disabled students learning basics.  Inclusive schools are about all students having an enjoyable time in school learning all the subjects.
