Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This is a 4 page paper discussing the inclusion of exceptional children within the preschool and classroom settings. The current trend in special education is the inclusion of exceptional children within the daycare or classroom setting. This practice is a transition from the “once-commonplace ideal of mainstreaming children with disabilities for part of the day in a general education classroom” while the rest of the day would involve individual and group sessions. The new practice of inclusion is becoming increasingly common in early-childhood education and studies are still being done in regards to the success or problems associated with full inclusion. There are still many problems which need to be overcome in order for inclusion programs to be successful. Overall, the trend for inclusion of exceptional children in the classroom is a positive one but inclusion must be supported by a financial and professional commitment by the school to provide the necessary resources, the parents and the professionals involved in order to be successful; anything less than a serious effort will effect all the children negatively.

There are still many problems which need to be overcome in order for inclusion programs to be successful. Overall, the trend for inclusion of exceptional children in the classroom is
a positive one but inclusion must be supported by a financial and professional commitment by the school to provide the necessary resources, the parents and the professionals involved in order
to be successful; anything less than a serious effort will effect all the children negatively. In early years programs, there are very few
studies which consistently report that preschool children have benefited from inclusion programs. The common concern in inclusion programs as reported by professionals and parents is the limited number of resources.
When schools have not shown a commitment to inclusion programs and have not provided the appropriate number of resources to the classes which include specialists, parents and teachers report that
some exceptional and some non-exceptional children become "lost in the shuffle". Other programs which have shown a "serious effort" and commitment to inclusion however in the later grades have reported
success in at least the perception of the students within the programs. Some of the major areas under observation include those related to teacher-student interaction in classrooms which include
exceptional children. In addition to teachers having to expand their teaching skills to include skills need for special students, many investigators are interested in knowing whether or not any groups
