I have never really understood blogging and always thought it was kind of weird that people would want to tell everyone their personal business on the web for all to see. However, I thought that maybe I can do blogging a little differently. This blog is focused on special education along with my thoughts, experiences, and information to help parents, teachers, and the community better understand the children that are "different". The title for my blog actually came from the HBO movie: Temple Grandin. If you have not seen this movie it will be released on DVD in August and I suggest you see it. Temple's mother always knew her daughter was different but did not want her treated less. That really strikes my heart because too often our society treats these children and adults as different and less. My mission for this blog is to provide information so that those who are not familiar with special education or people with special needs may change their attitudes so that everyone is treated as the great human beings they are. I look forward to sharing everything with you and I hope you can get great teaching ideas, helpful information, and give me input on things that are on your mind dealing with special education.
Until we meet again,
Mallory
