Ms. Rivera stands in front of her classroom filled with diverse students. Students have visible differences, like wheelchairs and mobility canes, as well as less visible ones, like students looking off into the distance or seeming withdrawn.
Boy, am I both nervous and excited

WELCOME!
Welcome to second grade! I’m Ms. Rivera, your teacher this year! Let’s kick things off with a fun activity—creating name tags for your desks. Write your name and draw something special that represents you!

Leo wheels over to the shelf where the markers are just out of reach. With a determined look, he uses his grabbers to pull them down, finding his own solution.
Here, Leo, let me help with that.
No worries, Ms. Rivera—I got it!

Back at his seat, Leo writes his name and sketches a book because he loves reading! He glances over at Dylan and asks, “What are you going to draw?” He quickly notices that Dylan is struggling and starting to feel frustrated.
After drawing, the class is given 20 minutes of independent reading time to get to chapter 2 of their class book. Ms. Rivera stands near Josh, who’s reading slowly with a furrowed brow, sounding out words and rereading sentences.
I hope my letters look right… ugh how on earth am I supposed to draw a football if I can't even confidently write my name.
Hey Dylan! Can I help with that? I know you're a huge football fan, how about I write your name and put a football next to it!
Inclusion becomes a reality when students are aware of and exposed to differences. By noticing and responding to each other’s needs, they help create a classroom where everyone feels valued and capable.

He's getting there, just needs a little more time.
No rush everyone, we will make sure everyone gets to the end of chapter 1 before we start our next activity. If you are done, please take out your independent reading book.

How can I make sure she doesn't fall behind? She is a great reader, but gets pretty fidgety after some time...

Every student brings their own world into the classroom. An anti-ableist stance begins with creating a space that values each one.
Diapositiva: 12
Students often have solutions we don’t expect. Sometimes, all they need is our trust in their independence.

Each student learns at their own pace. Anti-ableism means creating an environment where every student has the time and space to thrive. We grow together, respecting each learner’s unique rhythm.

After Suzie and Josh finish their reading and drawing activity, Ms. Rivera thinks it would be beneficial for Suzie to share her drawings with the class.
