I came across this in a yahoo group and thought it was a great idea:
Start printing anything and everything you learn about inclusion and start a notebook that you can loan to teachers over the next several years.
Section it:
1. Philosophy of inclusion ( include studies that support inclusion, how it benefits typical students without disabilities, etc)
2. How to include
3. Behavior
4. Modification ideas
5. Accommodation ideas
6. Tips for working with your specific child
7. Tips from prior teachers that you ask them to write each year for future teacher.
