Greetings! 

As I was working on this email, initially I was going to write about some strategies that you may find useful when teaching in special education classrooms. However, I think the thing that will help you most is watching this video by a woman named Aimee Mullins who redefines the word "disability." What do you think of her new definition? What do you think of the old definition? 

For those who substitute teach regularly in special education classrooms, what advice do you have for other substitute teachers? Share your tips here.

Best Wishes,
