So I'm back because I feel that tingling in my skin that I just have to say tell a story that I read in 10 or 15 years ago about an exceptional preschool teacher. he was teaching a preschool handicapped class with students many different disabilities. Class was held in a portable with stairs Kama far away from the parking lot. One of the parents was physically handicapped and needed to park in a handicap space and enter the classroom for meetings. so even though the school district had made plans for accommodations for this parent which I think meant putting an extra handicap parking space near the portable and a ramp into access classroom, the teacher use this as a teaching experience to empower these kiddos. They talked about the situation, walked to see the parking space, then came back to the classroom. He helped identify as they talked what the problem was. Then he helped the students plan a solution. It included a letter to the principal which they wrote together. They brought the letter to the principal's office and waited for the response. If I remember correctly there was a problem with their solution and they had to go back and we address How they would solve that problem. Another letter sent. The principal acknowledges and accepts their plan. Then in a very short time they see the handicap space being painted out near their classroom and a ramp installed. IMO, this teacher should have gotten teacher of the year In his district, county, and State. He exemplified the perfect way we Empower kids from young age through critical thinking and communication.
