Abstract
General Education teachers dont have exceedingly specialized capabilities in special education. We dont have much encounters in an inclusive classroom. Not continuously, but regularly, it appears that teachers feel unequal to the errand of educating students with special needs. It may be a characteristic of the calling that General Education teachers need certainty with such understudies, and feel incapable since we think we lack the skills. This can be something of a myth to be refuted. But teachers know more than they think they know. The challenge is getting these students to appreciate, engage, and keep them on task as much as possible without ruining the usual flow of the classes. Ten participants who are all Elementary teachers in selected public schools in Davao City are the focused in this study. The said participants are chosen through random sampling. All of them are licensed teachers and has experience teaching for almost two years to learners in grade one with disabilities. Many professionals in the literature express concerns about whether full inclusion is appropriate for all students with disabilities and emphasize the importance of maintaining a continuum of services. Supporters for a continuum of services for students with disabilities cite two main reasons. First, they believe there is an inadequate research base to advocate such a drastic change to the current educational system believes, the research evidence on the relative efficacy of one special education service delivery model over another is scarce, methodologically flawed, and inconclusive. Some studies support positive trends with inclusion programs; however, others have reported disappointing or unsatisfactory academic and social achievement through inclusion models.Learning in a remote setting may differ from mainstream, classroom-based environments. This includes expectations for students and course methodology. Curricula must often be adjusted. For example, homework can be simplified, allowing students to dictate rather than type, and audio materials can be provided for reading assignments during online class.
