Teachers need to see this video.
This is not meant for all teachers, there are truly some wondeful teachers out there who do not get enough credit for the wondeful work they do, however there are some that give the good ones a bad name,, anyway, I went to a inservice today and saw the a really good video, called F.A.T. about children who have learning disabalities in the classroom, It was actually putting you in the child's place and it was good and very effective,, even though I would not dream of demeaning a child I learned a great deal about the LD child and how I can be batter at teachingthem, I am a para not a teacher, I really wish parents and teachers could see this video and maybe it would open their eyes up. that was one of the best inservices I ever had been at,.

I also saw that video at an inservice I attended. I love it. and yes I thought the same thing, there are good teachers out there who work at helping the child above and beyond and do not get any credit for it, I have seen teachers who need to just quit because they have no business teaching, and teachers who need to watch that video. it is an eye opener.. I have used what I have learned from that to try and help the kids I work with. Teachers can be very uplifting or very degrading.. it is sad...
