Extractions: For Laramie Online Wyoming schools may soon be closing their doors, but only for one day. A resolution that calls for all schools in Wyoming to close their doors for one school day to allow teachers, parents and students to attend the Wyoming Legislature to support increased funding for school districts was approved by the Albany County School District 1 Board Wednesday night. The resolution will be presented to the Wyoming School Board Association. Superintendent Charles Head said that the resolution, if passed by the Legislature, will help solve the crisis of too few quality teachers and administrators in Wyoming. Head said the additional funding is necessary for Wyoming to compete with the salary schedules for teachers in other states. He said it is necessary to close the schools for one day because "we have to get our Legislatures attention." Head added that the school day missed will be made up at the end of the year. "The additional funding will allow Wyoming to attract and retain quality teachers," said Board Chair Susan McCormack.

Extractions: Story and photos by Denise Jarrett "Oh crap!" the sixth-grader mutters. He's guarding third base on the kickball court, and a girl on the opposing team has just kicked the ball high and long. She runs hard and lands on third base. The baseman, Nathan, leans over the arm of his motorized wheelchair and hisses at the girl, who hisses back triumphantly. The ball's kicked back into play, and Nathan shouts, "Throw it to me! Throw it to me!" The girl on third runs home, but another is tagged. Three outs. The teams switch places, and Nathan (not his real name) takes his turn at the plate, the footrests of his wheelchair turned back and out of the way. Toes pointing down and leaning forward in his chair, he waits for the pitch. His teammates call from behind. "Go Nathan!" "Hey, you want someone to run for you?" "Nathan, let him run for you." "No!" Nathan punts the ball and motors to first base. Any grownup watching from the sidelines might think, now there's a kid with a disability who's just one of the gang. And, of course, that's true. But every child is different, and Nathan's wheelchair makes his differences particularly apparent. Aware of this, everyone playing kickball on the court today is also engaged in a balancing act: treating Nathan like just another team member, yet extending some special treatment to level the playing ground.

Extractions: Wayland, MA "When children lack the ability or opportunity to play, their learning is severely compromised. I craft the learning environment by modifying the tempo and speed of an activity, by reducing the size of the play area, by modifying rules, by promoting teamwork, and by developing strategic action plans. I help my students build a strong foundation of active play skills, joyful memories, and successful movement experiences." John "John almost intuitively creates a physical and emotional environment that allows children and adolescents with disabilities to see themselves as truly able participants in health-enhancing games and sports, and as developing athletes. He uses himself as a powerful instructional tool - everything from the twinkle in his eye to his patient advocacy in creating and sustaining opportunities for genuine participation for his students in community recreational activities."
