My three goals for working with children with special needs are compassion, commitment, and advocacy. I will be compassionate because every student is special with their own individual capabilities. Recognizing that uniqueness will help me understand what the student needs, and help students achieve their goals. I will never expect perfection, and I will be supportive when students struggle. I will be applaud their achievements. I will care. I know that things will get frustrating sometimes. I will stay committed when things get stressful. I think sometimes people give up when things get difficult. Teaching students with special needs is difficult. It is best to recognize that fact before starting the adventure. The student needs to know that the teacher is never giving up. I will commit to doing the best job I can, even when it gets bumpy. I am committed to being a good teacher. I won't give up. Advocacy is crucial. As a teacher, I feel it imperative to fight for the rights of my students. Students with special needs have special needs, and those needs must be met. I will stay informed on proposed budget cuts in the legislature. I will rally for the rights of individuals who need help the most. I want to see my students succeed. I will stand up for them.
