Carol, from Raintree replied:

This year I observed a Kindergartner with physical impairments for the most part watching while others colored. I interpreted it was a passive behavior due to her disability. However, yesterday when I came into the classroom she was concentrating on controlled coloring and staying within the lines of the black letter. She looked up and said, "Carol, I am doing my work." What looked like passivity may have really been learning motor control by observing her friends. Her para was appropriately across the room because she did not need help.

Robbie, from Bright Futures replied:
Carryout through the day, child is not singled out, and other children learn about differences in people.
