Inclusion, Segregation, Desintegration?
In brief, for many of the participants it was clear that they viewed the issue of educational placement as an either/or issue: a child is either segragated or included. Given the wide range of educational strategies available, I will not waste anyone's time arguing that these terms are massive generalizations...there are no absolutes in life, and that is certainly true in the case of educational programming.

Beyond the pickets . . .
Teachers strike: week one. After what seemed like an eternal stay in purgatory, Ontario has finally been lowered into the fiery inferno of an illegal walkout by public school teachers. In brief, I'm disgusted with both "sides" of this issue, and I'm offended that we as a society have allowed "sides" and "education of children" to be part of the same dialogue!

Music Software Heaven: (for your little angels)
As teachers, we are constantly thinking of ways to treat our students and I would assume that generally means keeping stocked up on "Jolly Ranchers" or the like. But, as we all know, with just a little extra preparation AND perhaps a little "moo-la" too, we can treat our students (and ourselves) to some exciting interactive software. My picks, as of this article, are fun AND educational.
