An absolutely MUST-SEE video is entitled "How Difficult Can This Be? -
F.A.T. City" from PBS on-line video store at www.ShopPBS.org

This is available in DVD or VHS.  Viewing this video WILL change your
general education teachers FOREVER!!!!  My wife is a special education
professor at a university here in Michigan.  She has used it here for
over 2 years and before that in Minnesota State University for 5
years.
Presenter is Richard Lavoie.

The promotional annotation reads as follows:
This important program looks at the world through the eyes of children
with learning disabilities by taking you to a unique workshop attended
by parents, educators, psychologists and social workers. There they
join
in a series of classroom activities which, cause frustration, anxiety
and tension -- emotions all too familiar to the student with a
learning
disability. "Must" viewing for parents and teachers.

This is the best Special Education video I have ever seen! BTW,
Richard
Lavoie also has several other videos through PBS Video which are
almost
as good!
