I mentioned awhile back that I worked as a long term sub for Special Ed. I actually worked with the �behavioral� crowd primarily. SOME of these kids were incredibly insightful and intelligent. For the most part they either had challenging home lives or now that I think of it, maybe some were just bored out of their skulls in the regular classroom and others were just dirt poor. I couldn�t figure out why some were even in the classroom. If I were a teacher, I�d prefer working with the gifted and/or LD or �behavioral�. Of course flexibility (and patience) is key for any of these groups! -Although as they say, "Common sense isn't all that common."
