Next, reflect on what you learned about inclusive practices. You can think back to the ability simulation, Autism discussion, Including Samuel video, and more.
Using your reflections, write a letter to someone in the Early Childhood field or in an elected position on a topic of inclusion, focusing on a policy or action you’d like to see changed. Tell them what you know and why you believe it’s important. Be sure to use at least 3 examples and data to support your stance. This letter must be submitted for a grade, yet it is your choice if it is delivered to the recipient. Letterhead is attached to support your letter writing.
