Thing 20


Thing 20
Educating Peter is an amazing video that shows the struggles and successes of inclusion. Peter is a student with a disability that causes him to have behaviors and socially inappropriate peer interactions. This video was done in 1992 when inclusion wasn’t as popular as it is now. His teacher did not have the mind-set that I would have expected. I thought she would have been unhappy about the situation. Instead she was all for it, she even allowed the students to be active participants in helping Peter grow. This would be a great video for students to learn about diversity and acceptance of others.
