A special education -- The dojo -- The arena -- The theatre -- The studio -- The Sinclair School : a counterstory.
Summary: Step outside of the IEPs and behavioral paperwork generated in schools, go where disabled people are thriving, and see the results in learning, growth, and expression. This book offers readers alternative ways to think about learning and behavior in special education. Through illustrative case studies and a disability studies lens, the author uses the voices of people with disabilities to show how these students progress creatively outside the classroom and school building - at the dojo, the riding arena, the theater stage, the music studio, and other community-centered spaces where disabled students can make choices about their learning, their bodies, and their goals. Balancing theory and practice, the book describes alternative learning spaces, demonstrates how disabled students learn there, and passes on the important lessons learned in each space. The ideas apply to students of all ages with a wide variety of disabilities. -- Provided by publisher.
