We All Belong: Inclusive Practices in the Early Years

We live in a world that is wonderfully diverse – not only culturally but also in our unique abilities. Some of us can sing, while others can solve Sudoku in a few minutes. Children all learn at their own rate and in their own way. It’s up to us, the important adults in their lives, to help them on this journey they are traveling on. To do this effectively, we need to understand these abilities, how they are unique to each child, and what we can do to support them. This is what we discuss in this session! Let’s talk about all children’s different learning styles, from extroverts to introverts to children with Autism, hearing impairments, or sensory processing disorders. Every child can learn! Every child belongs! Let’s ensure we can set up our environment for every child and get them on their path to the future!

1. Describe inclusion, special needs, and disability
