Implementing Inclusion Theory into Practice
Nehring, Catherine
NAMTA Journal, v39 n3 p39-63 Sum 2014
Catherine Nehring is a passionate advocate for inclusion and presents a rationale for creating an inclusive Montessori school and details the considerations and guidelines for creating such a school. Beginning with the United Nations Resolution (Article 24) and carefully explaining Montessori's history with "abnormal children," Catherine outlines the barriers to inclusion, the many options for inclusion, and the value of building partnerships with the medical profession. [This talk was presented at the NAMTA conference titled "Building the Inclusive Montessori Community," Phoenix, AZ, January 16-19, 2014.]
