This week a teacher named Adrien blogged about how she tries to teach her special needs students to be self-advocates by educating them on what special needs are on a level that they can understand. She shows videos with someone with a disability doing something interesting and then discusses the content with her disabled students. They discuss the person's strengths, weaknesses and supports and she hopes that this will empower them. I thought this was a really cool way to teach all children about disabilities.
