By referring to students as superheroes, this phrase acknowledges the unique strengths, abilities, and potential of each child. It recognizes that every student, regardless of their challenges or differences, has their own "superpowers" - whether it's a particular talent, a unique way of thinking, or an extraordinary ability to overcome obstacles.
For teachers, this mindset promotes a positive, strength-based approach to education. It encourages them to look beyond conventional measures of success and appreciate the diverse ways students can excel.
This phrase can be particularly meaningful in the context of teaching students with special needs or neurodevelopmental differences like autism. It celebrates neurodiversity and rejects the deficit model of disability, instead focusing on each student's individual strengths and potential.

SPED programs aim to provide individualized instruction, modified curriculum, and specialized resources to ensure that students with disabilities can access education and reach their full potential.

The ultimate goal of SPED is to promote inclusion, independence, and academic success for all learners.

I really wish more female teachers would understand that there are going to be boys in their classes. Boys are going to feel alienated if they walk into class and see fluffy, pink, Pinterest-perfect decor and furniture all over the room. Boys don’t want all the anchor charts to be filled with Taylor Swift references. I don’t understand the modern obsession with female teachers making their classrooms as obnoxiously girly as possible.

Rise Angelo: Everyone can be an artist! You already have a lot of creative spirit, once we teach you some useful skills you'll be like a renaissance turtle! You've got the greatest teachers in the multiverse teaching the most receptive student. I don't see a way this can be anything but great!
03 Don: I don't know, guys. The last person who tried to help me learn to draw ended up trapped in a pocket dimension.
Angelo: Well then it's a good thing we have an interdimensional transporter that some certain creative turtle helped make 😉
2012 Raph: Look, relax okay? It's not that big a deal, nobody's fate is hanging in the balance, this is just art class.
Don: Okay 🙂
Raph: Did you bring us a sample so we can figure out what to teach?
Don slides over a piece of paper
Angelo:
Raph:
Don:
Raph: What is it?
Don: I think it's a dog
Raph: Wh. You're not sure?
Angelo: Teacher huddle! Raph. Which one of us is gonna lie and say he has potential?
Raph: We're not good cop bad copping this, it's art class!
Angelo: So you'll be good cop?
Raph: No way! Aren't you supposed to be the nice one?
Angelo: You're right. I'll be Dr. Delicate--
Raph: NO! No. You can be bad cop, I'll handle the lying. Just find some tutorial videos or something about straight and curved lines.
Angelo: I'll bring a ruler and some cups to trace.
Raph, approaching Don, holding the paper
Don: It's bad, huh?
Raph: It's...
Don:
Raph:
Don:
Raph: Not a dog what the shell is wrong with you
Angelo, arriving with supplies: Aw I thought you said I could be the bad cop

Just a reminder to the fans of Hera (@junoinouterspace ) and I's ROTTMNT Teacher Au
Both hera and I are uncomfortable with the kendratello ship and will not have it in our AU
It's personally a ship that we don't like, nor do we think it would be a healthy one to have in our au. We also simply do not like Kendra's character and don't want to include her in the au beyond the role of "she exists, but we don't talk about her"
If you're a fan of kendra or kendratello, unfortunately, this is an au that isn't intended for you, and you will have to look elsewhere for that kind of content
Thanks for understanding much love x
Edit: if you have any issues or grievances with this statement, send them to me and not Hera, thanks!
