Through implement activities in this classroom, I observed that children have capacity to use materials in variety of ways to learn and explore base on their experiences and interests.

According to the author (Raymond, 2012), the perception of the students about the services they receive determine the outcome of the education efforts. For that, the teachers ' role is to guarantee that the student does not feel inferior, unequal, wich would be the negative conotation of the special education placement (Raymond, 2012). Instead of focusing on their difficulties, teachers should focus on reducing the gaps with more inclusive
We believe that every child is entitled to an education no matter what background they are from. We encourage our staff to listen to the suggestions and needs of our children and take all matters seriously, building an inclusive community on trust and self-worth. The Salamaca statement and framework for action on special needs education 1994 (UNESCO, 1994) also states ‘Each child’s learning needs are different’

In Vietnam, the obligatory moral curriculums for students are Moral Education in primary levels, Civics education in secondary levels, and Marxist sciences and Ho Chi Minh thoughts at university. The aim of these curriculums are character and personality building, citizenship education, and spreading the ideas of inculcating socialist thoughts and socialist principles respectively (Truong, 2013). Different from Vietnam, all Singapore students have to take the compulsory subject ‘Civics and Moral Education’ (CME) at the primary and secondary levels, and ‘Civics’ at the pre-university level. Six core values identified as the foundation for good character are respect, responsibility, integrity, care, resilience, and harmony. According to Tan (2013), these six values are intended to “complement and reinforce” various state- sanctioned visions, namely “Our Shared Values, the Singapore Family Values, the Singapore 21 Vision and the National Education messages”.
Thesis statement “Inclusion Helps Special Needs Students by Allowing Them to Develop Interactional Skills Because of the Exposure to a Social Environment.” Inclusion in education is an approach to educate students with special needs in regular classrooms, rejecting the need of special schools. The aim of this paper will be to demonstrate that inclusion of special needs students in regular classrooms helps them not only by developing interactional skills but also by allowing them to grow in a more desirable way in school. However, inclusion is not completely beneficial. One must consider that special needs is an umbrella of several necessities that demand different approaches.
Fostering a tolerant, inclusive and friendly environment for special needs children by creating activities which will bring them closer to the community they live in. The activities to which they will participate outside school such as visits at museums or other activities will make children visible in the community and contribute to a better understanding in society of disability and the role of community in integrating them in their daily life.
The teacher will explain to the students the rules. When a rule is broken the student will already know what is the consequence for their misbehavior. These details both agree that if misbehavior is being displayed a consequence will be administered. (Kagan, n.d.)
Clear expectations should be set from the first day of school and constantly be reinforced throughout the year. The classroom rule should be visually displayed for students. Teachers need to take social and emotional factors of students into consideration when it comes to behavioural classroom management. Element 3.2.1 -
