I worked as a PPCD aide for Shadow Glen Elementary in the Manor Isd district from March 21- April 22 under the supervision of Mrs. Clack-Jones the PPCD teacher. Our classroom setup was different than most, because our morning classroom consisted of 5-6 kids at a time, ages between 3-5. In the afternoon me and another aide were sent out to a Pre-k class to help out the Pre-k teacher.

Students with Down Syndrome portray a better success rate when being in a normal classroom, rather than a special-Ed classroom. Most schools doubt students with Down Syndrome, so the schools put students in special-Ed classrooms. Also, the normal classroom teachers do not want to change their way of teaching to help the students with disabilities. In Paul Daugherty’s memoir An Uncomplicated Life, Daugherty and his wife are gifted with a girl, Jillian, who has Down Syndrome. Jillian is placed in normal classes after her parents fought with the school system for this decision, but some of Jillian’s teachers do not follow the demands her parents want from her teachers in order for Jillian to succeed.

All the parents surveyed expressed an interest in having more classes and camps that were adapted for the children. Most said that they had trouble finding group activities that their child can participate in, and that their children typically did not participate in group activities such as these for the most part because of behavioral issues associated with their diagnosis. Some parents were overwhelmed by the high level of participation their child exhibited. One child was described as having a high level of tactile defensiveness, and yet within 10 minutes of the class beginning he was hugging occupational therapy assistant students and holding their hands. His parents were amazed, even a bit shocked.

During this time, they primarily worked on worksheets designed for the special education classroom as well as working on achieving their goals for accelerated reading. There were a few students who came in for an hour with work from their general education classroom and needed extra help completing their work. There were two students who had more severe disabilities, but they worked with paraprofessionals and did not do the same work as the rest of the class. One method of adjusting the work to meet the needs of the students that I noticed being used a lot in the classrooms I observed was cutting down the amount of work that they had to do. I
